^^^^^^for real, my older apartments were off a busy street, and those bikes tear up! they sounded like they were in my living room, and then you got the police decibal checking, and giving tickets when someones exhaust is 99 dB, not 95. i dont think some of those harleys would even register they are so loud!

ok so here is the rig up for the "loudest" exhaust. Take off everything after your MMW headers. Run a mic down under the opening of the headers, directly from your avic-d1. Switch it to auxilary and have your 3 15's in the back blare the sh*t sound of your exhaust. The high's wont pick up so well, so your best bet is the subs. Then simply drive

Make it fast then make it load. Load and fast is ok. Load and slow sucks. Lots of duallys around here all bark and no bite. Pathetic! How about stock civics with fart cans? I think harleys use half there horses making noise and only put the other half to the ground.

so true. Well the set up I want is Alphawerk headers, Magnaflow 30" resonator and hi flow cat, ZPIracing S pipe and mid pipe, and prolly the HKS rear section exhaust. Figure that should be pretty straight forward and nice and clean

Yea my friend just installed his header in today and he said the header really kicks up the sound and obviously makes the stock piping a lil less restrictive i guess. As for other performance mods, i'm lookin at Injen CAI and a pulley kit. Hopefully that will all push me to 200+ ponies. Obviously anyone would want a turbo but i dont have that kind of money at the moment

Aluminum flywheel supposedly adds a lot of power too. Never used one yet. Should ship tomorrow. Only thing is install can get expensive.

Not trying to be a poop, but flywheels don't add power. Due to being lighter, it's less rotating mass, which in turn allows the engine to "deliver" better power.

So are you saying that you don't consider it a power mod? To me anything that adds power is a power mod. Certainly not a bling mod unless you leave your tranny out so people can see it.
