I ran just the axleback with the factory mid for a while before changing out for the Tsudo mid. First, you can't beat the price. Second, if you're the kind that likes a really loud exhaust, you'll probably be disappointed. Don't get me wrong, it wakes up my kids at 5:30 a.m. with a cold start, but after that initial 30 seconds, it's pretty tame. Drone is reasonable at all cruise speeds except uphill, which isn't too bad. Tone isn't as deep as I was expecting. Wide open at high rpm it doesn't "roar", it "sings", which is a completely subjective observation and probably doesn't make much sense to you.

Here, I took some crappy video from inside, windows closed and windows/roof open. I have a Tsudo catback, but with the resonators replaced with Vibrants. Tsudo resonators are garbage (imho). Also have the RR intake, so no intake sound generator.
