Hey everyone,

I installed the M7 yesterday and definately feel a difference, BUT...here is my question:
Do you feel that the car is much louder now?

Not only is my exhaust a lot more noticable now, but I can even hear the whine of the suercharger.

Do you guys feel that way?

Peter? Info on this please.

Louay

Hi Samawil

Hmmmmm.......... that's a new one can't say I noticed either...but what the heck both problems are desirable
loud exhaust and SC whine....Enjoy.

Ps. The M7 Plasma Booster will make the combustion processs more complete so it's possible that there is more
exhaust energy wich would = Louder exhaust :smile:

M7 is the name of a company
Plasma Booster is the name of one of the products.

I have the PB and did not notice any loudness difference from my quicksilver exhaust.
It is possible that you might. If so great. Maybe I have hearing damage from my loud stereo.
Or maybe the exhaust is already loud enough that a little more isn't that noticable.

I wasn't saying that it's a problem, just that I hadn't read of that happening to anyone else, so I was wondering why..maybe I installed it wrong, or something.

Louder exhaust, in my book, means there is more air passing through it.
The car definately feels smoother, and is going through the gears better...I love it...I am back to pre airbox/exhaust gas milage, and I can't get enough of the SC whine...so all in all I am Super Happy. When I first got in the car and drove, I called Peter and was screaming...he thought I was angry, but I was just so excited :smile:
