Talking Who Else Loves Tunnels?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5dLqWQzATac

Found the opportunity to drive through the tunnel near LAX so I decided to record what my set-up sounds like. Currently on F-Sport intake with Invidia midpipe and the Tanabe Medalion exhaust. Absolutely music to my ears past 3.5k RPM. The best part about it is it stays quiet during normal cruising and light throttle but comes alive when you want it to! Let me know what you guys think!

I am sure it sounds nice in person, the background noise in the film just overboosts everything.
