If I would change something right now it would probably be the muffler. I'm scratching out the glasspack because it will be too much as OP said.
Non straight through design but I wouldn't go back to the 1000lb stock muffler.

hmm, true.
i'm gonna look on ebay and find something cool, maybe the OEM one from another car? i don't think they really make aftermarket mufflers that are non-straight through .. unless you plan on spending hundreds on a magnaflow i suppose.

The difference would really hardly be noticeable in between stock and straight-through. Personally I'd rather have my car sound better than put down 1 more whp or so, but meh thats me.
I recommend the 40 series (? maybe 30 series...) I think from Flowmaster. They cut down noise considerably, although they cut down exhaust flow. Flow better than stock though.

Wrong! Straight through muffler comparing to a stock muffler is like a day and night. Stock muffler restricts flow at higher rpms and you will feel like your car is dying...
Slowmaster while sound nice are also very restrictive. Don't get one.

I wouldn't experiment with your exhaust too much mang, there are some people who'd do anything to have the sound you have acheived, besides those shadeballs with the Apexi who refuse to post sound clips!! tongue.gif
Seriously, it doesn't sound far off a Bimmer exhaust. I have a clip of a supercharged M3 and it's exhaust sounds just like yours. For a 4cyl and the amount you paid, it sounds great!

It sounds quite similar, like you'll see what I mean.
I'm sure there are exhaust setups that sound better than this one (supposedly the Apexi does, but I need a sound/video clip or actually witness it with my own ears for proof) but so far this is one of the best FULL exhausts I've heard on an RD.

A couple questions. I assume you DON'T have the silencer put in, right?
And just how LOUD is it without it? I hear the Motoria is loud, no matter how you look at it compared to other exhausts.
