Default Anyone who owns a Sp

I saw one at a local meet and it looks pretty good.

How loud is it on a scale of 1 to 10? (1 being barely louder than stock and 10 causing heads to turn from a mile away).

Also, did anyone install their exhaust at Spugen's store? How much was the install?

Thanks.

i'm curious about this as well

the spugen web site has those clips so i could hear it, but i'd like to get some opinions as well. (i'm sure it's quieter than invidia??)

I had it and I would say about 8 or 9. It was so damn loud I couldn't handle it, but if you like loud exhausts this is not a bad one to pick.

Exhaust install at Spugen is around $35-$45 I believe.

It's not how loud your exhaust is, it's how loud your drone is... that you should be concerned with.

Proper soundproofing of the cabin or a good resonator under the cockpit will shift the drone to "behind" the car instead of it sitting next to you in the compartment, then you can enjoy your exhaust sound like you would standing outside the car on the curb.

I have it and I think is a great Exhaust system, it's very deep but it wont drive you crazy like the indivia,
You def can hear the different when you drive with the top up or topless,
we had a small group buy (fuji's) and I was thinking really hard about keeping the Spugen, and I now it makes a BIG diffent if you are S/C, turbo or n/a, (sounds)
I had it while I was getting the s/c install and it's sound great with s/c
if you want an audio clip PM me your email address and I'll send it to you


bottom line, it's deep but no drone
that's my 0.02 cent
