R50/53 my exhaust is getting louder -_-
my exhaust is getting louder -_-
anyone else's one-ball sound like mine?
I put on about 15000 miles on it and it got louder now at 30000 miles
my car wasn't even running hot when I shot that video... After I drive around for a few miles, the idle is much louder.. like a rally car

Nothing wrong with things getting a little louder! But what I will say is that since your in SoCal watch out for the cops....they don't tend to like anything thats "louder than stock". I've been pulled over three times for mine. Once just cruising through town.....got a ticket. Another one driving to work.....cop let me off. And the last time just driving at a normal speed without getting on it.....no license on me and expired insurance and cop let me off. Guess he was having a great day! lol
All in all....just be careful cause they will give you a fix-it-ticket for anything around these parts it seems like.

Sounds just like how a one ball is suppose to sound. Maybe you got a leak somewhere. Check the exhaust gasket to make sure.
I live in SoCal and cops haven't have not given me any problems so far. I actually had a couple compliment me.

will do!
I would guess u have a little bit of an exhaust leak somewhere, i say that just form the sound at idle. Personally i like the gurgling and back fire it was having. My oneball sounds pretty similiar, maybe not quite as loud, but check for a little leak anywhere.
sounds good!
