Smile Borla Exhaust Tunnel Runs!

Enough of all of the tuning wars!
Let's start talking about exhaust clips.

I went to Long Beach the other day and I had to go through a couple tunnels.
The sound of my exhaust sounded so good that I had to make a couple sound clips for you guys.
It's not super loud but I wouldn't call it quiet either.

Youre funny! I will see what I can come up with though. We dont have much in the way of tunnels here in San Diego.

Nice to see some proper heel-toe action (or in this case, just rev matching) on the downshifts.

I love the rev matching but the hel-toe I only do every once and a while.

Nice! Quick question though. Are you able to pass emissions with the high flow cats only?

I really doubt it, but I'll worry about that in another 3.5 years.

Thanks guys.
I'm surprised though--nobody said anything like, "My tunnel is longer than yours."

We can have tunnel wars instead of tunning wars.

Sounds sweet.

Where do you mount the camera for the in-car clips?

So did you just leave the camera on the side of the road for a few minutes? haha. Nice vid. I love Rev matching as well. Our cars are easy doing it.

Damn that wind!!!! I could barely hear it because of the wind, but what I could hear sounded fantastic. I love to go through tunnels especially the one by LAX ohhhhh man.
