Street Extreme, to loud?

[yorkie_chris]

I don't think I've got a video of the old micron downpipes and the stubby can (with absolutely zero packing in it and loads of air leaks). It was awesome, people I overtook said that at full chat it was physically painful to hear. It would set car alarms off 300 yards behind when you trilled it off the limiter in 1st. And the rasping snarl on the overrun sounded like you were feeding bricks into a shredder.

Now I've got full M4 on a slightly modified engine (race cams, BMC R-RS filter, some other stuff) and it sounds like this.

Absolutely loads quieter but a much deeper sound and a MUCH flatter power curve. Takes a little bit of the fun out of it, because the micron + stubby really kicked you in the teeth at 6k rpm. But it has a really nice deep booming note when you wind the power on.
But I still miss the snarling antisocial stupidity of the stubby can and am resisting the urge to hack the M4 down to about 6".

The program wouldn`t let me add music as I had "4king Hostile" by Pantera ready for that bit . 9" Grinder had a blade that looked like a worn out hallway rug and I didn`t fancy even the teeniest snag on it as it would have wigged out and probably embedded into various cars on the road outside . The really annoying bit is that I had volume levelling switched on so they all sound the same volume .... they most certainly were not , then again , what do you expect from a microphone the size of 5 pence piece in the camcorder .

Yours has a much deeper sound. Mine is more raspy. Sounds like yours has a lot more packing in it or something. I haven't heard a street extreme without a baffle so I don't know if it is louder than mine

Mine is a Titanium one , has a totally different sound from the normal Stainless Street Extreme . They don`t make the Titanium ones very often , in fact they probably don`t make them at all now , it also has a different shape on the Exit cone as well . Not sure about packing , the can seriously weighed less than a grab bag of Dorito`s crisps and I thought it wasn`t in the box when I got it .

must make a vid of mine then hehe

for a start mine dosent have any baffles secondly mine has this little stamp on it that says track use only (lol)

i love my renegade high level

Again thanks for the replies, keep this sort coming and I'll get one!

I quite fancy a high level can but have a tail tidy and imagine that there would be a clash with the right indicator, I think the picture on this ebay link illustrates this!

Are these exhausts any good? is this a good price?
