The B&Bs are not loud in my opinion, but they have a nice resonant drone to them - no high pitched whine - just a nice deep growl.

Very close Ben, I was on the phone with Sunset today and happened to inquire - $1800 + shipping for the kit.

I'm not sure how much louder one would really want it so to give off the impression that PSE is too quiet, to me, is a serious misnomer.
I must say that I am enjoying the new Ben.

I am considering picking up an AP2 S2000 at some point. There is just something about the visceral nature of the car that is really appealing to me.
