I listened to that Tube you posted and it sounded OK but when he let off the gas, it sounded like that was a little bit of...hmmm...not backfire but something. It's pretty throaty, though.

I always thought that kind of sound (whatever it is) indicates the car isn't tuned right.

Oh, and good luck with the repair. As to adding value to the repair cost, IF it's used, then there should be SOME savings on THAT. It should/maybe even out. But a used hatch shouldn't cost as much as one from Acura.

Well, he was standing still and hitting the rev limiter, I wouldn't put much into that morons video, I was just more concerned with the lower end sound, which is I spend most of my time unfortunately. . I think under load that exhaust is going to sound bad ass (and yes I'll post a video of actually driving).

maybe it was cold out? He probably had just installed it and that's getting all the condensation and such out. Also he might have a race header/test pipe.
