i didn't like how mine sounded removed. too raspy, and very loud. picture any v6 with no muffler, and it fit right in. i added an aero turbine muffler, and it sounds alot more tuned sounding, but still a little loud. i'll be adding aero's resignator eventually to bring the noise down a little more.

performance wise, the car lost alot of low speed power (torque) with nothing there. the aero broght it back, and it feels like it pulls a bit better up top too.
