Default Just threw on the HKS Purple Insert!
damnnn

this thing sounds really nice now..

ive been drivin around without any insert for about 3 weeks now and it sounded like an old man exhaling really loudly lol

so i ordered the purple insert and just installed in (15 mins total) and it sounds siccck

really loud..almost obnoxious loud...and it has a quasi-GReddy type s sound to it...

the best i can describe it is: "Cha Cah Ssss"

it let a whoosh of air out at first and ends in a high pitch sound....

buy it!

what you were thinking of is the purple cone in the center.
