^What he said. The Challenge 76AR is a 3 inch straight pipe with just a resonator. It's unnervingly loud. The forceworks and my ASM are more similar in terms of audio levels, then would come the Js 70rr and T1r 70RT/R/v3 or whatever, then the berk 3inch, after all that shit take a couple of steps up and then comes the challenge

After hearing Challenge exhaust last night, UK mod just ain't cuttin it for me anymore lol
How does the Challenge exhaust sound from inside the vehicle ?.

Not sure which one you heard, but Vince's challenge rm exhaust was ear piercingly painful. lol.
How does it compare to mine WOT on the wine tour?

Yours sounds like a musical harp compared to Vince's buzzsaw, lol. Dom, your exhaust is much more subdued, it is loud but not likely something that would get you into trouble. Your exhaust is stinky though, it filled the cabin of my car with ample fumes, lol.

Vince passed me a couple years ago on the Niagara Parkway and my head is still aching

Just had the uk mod done and installed a berk 63.5 hfc.
With the top up and windows up, you can barely hear it. With the top down and windows down, noticeable sound increase.

I might have to have someone do a drive by so i can hear it outside the car. It doesn't sound raspy from in the car so I'm hoping it doesn't sound like that outside the car.

What size piping did you weld on?

s2jizzer's exhaust was pretty loud, I can't really speak to the cabin noise level but definitely heard it clearly and sometimes over my exhaust driving near it.

^^^^ with the top up and windows up I hear clutch buzz and engine bay noise over the exhaust. Top up windows down there is a audible difference from stock. And top down windows down you can really hear it scream. No drone AT ALL.

I had a 1.5" stainless pipe welded on.

I'll try and shoot a video if the weather will hold up.

At full throttle I really can't hear it over my K&N intake when I'm in the car.

really? I have a K&N fipk too, and it's about a 50/50 split between the front and rear at wot. even just accelerating normally it gives it a bit of a sweeter tone.
at WOT it screams like raped ape though.

I haven't really been wot with the top down so that might be why I can barely hear it over the intake.
When cruising with the window down, I can definitely hear the exhaust under regular throttle load.

I can't really hear my exhaust, I've had a couple people tell me that it sounds nice, but when I'm in the car I can't really hear it over the other noise, and I have a stock intake. I wish it had some more sound to it.

I think you really have to be behind /outside of the car to really get a good sense of the UK exhaust sound. The sound doesn't transmit to the driver seat completely.
