Amuse Exhaust Video
Here's a link to a crappy video that I made. It's a compilation of various short clips of driving around with an Amuse Exhaust. When I made the recordings, I didn't really have a lot of ROAD to work with, so bear with me.
The idea was to put a bunch of random clips onto one video to give you guys a better idea as to what this thing actually sounds like.
There are 2 fantastic things about this exhaust that seem to be very unique:
1. It is louder outside the car than it is inside the car. Usually with aftermarket exhausts, driving with the windows closed creates a closed box in which the lower-pitched sound resonates and echoes and becomes very annoying. I have experienced this personally with both the Nismo (very loud) and the Fujitsubo (not too loud, but still droned, especially with the windows closed). Not the Amuse - much, much louder with the windows open.
2. When maintaining a constant speed, at ANY speed, there is no drone with this exhaust. With other exhausts, there is a ton of drone, especially at highway speeds. Even when you're not accelerating (just cruising along merrily). With the Amuse, if you are driving normally, you can barely tell the exhaust is aftermarket. My friends both commented on the change in sound of my car when I got the Nismo and Fujitsubo. Not the Amuse, because when you drive it like a sane person, it doesn't drone at all.
But then of course, when you floor it, the exhaust gets extremely loud.
Word.

Thanks everyone for the nice comments.
Once I have some time and I can get a little farther away from the city, I will take some better videos on some better roads and put them up here.
