Yep. It has much more "bass" than the Iphone 4 can capture. USE ON EAR headphones to get a pretty close to accurate sound. The two Magnaflow 14815 are quiet at idle. Let's say at idle it's like a "2" (on a sound scale from 1-10), but once that red light turns green and it's time to accelerate, the sound turns into a "6" no matter how lightly you have your foot on the gas pedal, press the pedal even more, and it gets even louder. Every rev match you do, everyone will here you pressing your throttle. So yes, the exhaust on this car is pretty loud (Not as loud as my straight pipe'd Vr6 Corrado), or any straight pipe vehicles), but only when the car is moving, or you're being a douchecanoe on the freeway. Factory mid pipe with cats are intact as well. Oh, and this exhaust DRONES (2-3krpm) in my coupe, although experience may differ.
