From BMP/Pro Mini CAI to Alta CAi

Wow!! Big difference in sound--MUCH more SC whine. Nice. More noise feels like more power. I probably am hammering more to hear louder SC notes now, but it seems a little quicker. I put the BMP on last yr after reviewing Randy's descriptions and recommendation. I was disappointed it wasn't louder. He also recommended the Magna Flow Exhaust which is all it is supposed to be--Loud! Love that. Now I am surrounded by a Harmonic Convergence. I am 62 and still love the "noise". Nick

Nick,

That was probably before we had the Alta - glad to hear you are happy now! The Alta is certainly a great sounding system - and it isn't too loud when under normal conditions, but when under load unbeatable music!

Randy
