thanks
Definitely notice the agressive sound when I accelerate, especially at WOT. Driving around and cruising, you can really hear much, unless the stereo is off

i agree. accelerating at partial or WOT there is a nice deep tone. cruising anywhere from 60-85 very little. for me it's the best of both worlds IMO.

mike, are your tips lined up on both sides with the bumper cutouts?

At first, the left tip hung a little lower. But after some tips from the guys here, I just used a couple of zip ties to fix that problem. Now they look pretty center. Sounds cheap (because it IS), but it did the job!

I actually just took some video from the inside of my car under different driving conditions (slow acceleration, WOT, windows up/down, ECT power mode, etc), for those that are curious about the sounds of the Tanabe/Megan Mids set up. I'll be posting it soon....
