How loud is it? I'm debating getting this or a TI if I can come across a used one.. I think I heard somewhere the SS is quieter than the TI.

No idea yet, car is still on jack stands in the garage. If it doesn't rain ill know today. It's a very deep tone when I did a cold start to check for leaks and rattles, seemed loud but that's in an enclosed space.

The ss is quieter than TI because the ss still has a resonator along the way as compared to the TI being straight piping. I have a 70rs and i think its pretty loud but not obnoxiously loud. I like it. It will get you attention whichever you decide but nothing like u would get in an old civic with a fart cannon haha.

^ anybody can feel free to correct me if im wrong

Both the 60RS and 70RS in SS or TI have the reasonator.

the RR version is the complete straight pipe..

Went for a quick drive, exhaust is surprisingly quiet during normal driving. Has a deep throaty note during light and heavy acceleration. I'll have to get a friend to drive it to see how loud it is outside the car. I'll make a video at some point this year of how it sounds.

If you make the video can you record the sound at cruising speed? All other videos are at open throttle, it makes it hard to get a general idea of the loudness with every day driving.

Absolutely. That's one of my issues with exhaust videos too. I don't drive like I'm doing a Best Motoring Touge run all the time so most videos are useless lol
