Default Sharkwerks and other mods
Added a few things to my new to me 2012 C2S

Spacers 7 front 15 back: love the look

Black rims & tips: love them

Badging: Thought back end was to busy, this is minimal and growing on me

Sharkwerks exhaust: First impression to F#*!'n loud. This morning after creeping out of my sub division it is starting to grow on me. Easy to control volume with PDK in auto mod with sport off. Slap it into M mode with sport plus and it howls.

That is indeed an apt description! And the burbles on overrun are to die for

When I was in at SW they told me a guy was in there who had PSE that wanted the SW to give it the guttural, exotic feel - after feeling severely out done with all the exotics at Monterey the other weekend.

When I first installed the system there was a leak in the vacuum line going to center muffler so the valves weren't closing and I had a very aggressive exhaust system which is what I wanted, yes there was some drone but it was in the lower rpm range which didn't bother me because I tend to drive in manual mode and just kept the car a gear or two lower and problem solved lol I didn't care about gas mileage. A week after, the leak caused a cooling system error and when the dealership fixed the leak the system was about 30% quieter. No drone at all, still got burps and crackle but not as much as before and it doesn't scream at higher rpms. I would say it's a more aggressive tone than PSE but probably exactly what Sharkwerks engineered it to be. I'm going back in to see if we can disconnect and plug the vacuum line to have that aggressive sound back
