The guy kept my car for two months and it's back at the dealer for sale again.

Sounds fantastic. Any noticeable difference in cabin noise or vibration? On my RC the whole thing would vibrate and shake with my full exhaust installed, not sure I want that in this one.

None at all. Roll down the windows while driving at WOT and it's a GODDAMN symphony LOL. Roll your windows up and you can have a conversation with your passenger without interruption. The LC is solid for insulation.

Heard the other LC with PPE's exhaust last week. Sounds amazing. Picked up my RC-F last week from PPE with their headers, RR racing tune, and Joe-Z exhaust. Would be interested to run the F with the LC.

Not sure what type of device you are using to listen to the clip with but I assure you it sounds much better in person. I recorded the video and audio with an iPhone and I don't think the audio mic in the iPhone is capable of capturing the audio like a studio mic can. The clip is not giving full audio resonance and is excessive with treble levels giving it a false higher pitched tone on the higher revs than it actually sounds. It sounds like a Formula One V8 in person and the downshifts are very exotic sounding with a Ferrari V12 similarity.
