BAT Inc's site says there is something you can put on the tips of the exhaust to make it even quieter. Would that affect the noise in the car? If so, what exactly is "it"?

I need to get the silencers put in and see if that tames the beast. It's been on about a year now, and it does look purty with the all that polished stainless steel. Bonus was you can mount it yourself with no welding or clamps involved. Money doesn't always bring happiness.

Is it bad in the car or just outside of it? As long as it's quiet in the car, I couldn't care less who hears what. '03 SRT-4 50 trim turbo + support

It drones pretty bad too. My GF complains her ears are gonna pop if you don't put in the clutch and take your foot off the gas while slowing down. It does get a lot of attention and overall highway crusiing isn't too bad as long as you keep it below 75mph. I rarely do though as the flow of traffic here (when were not parked) is 80+ and then you get the drone pretty bad. PM me if ya want to hear it I'm more than happy to give you a live demo on my cell. Hightower also has one as well as two guys in the NY chapter. Bolt up was pretty simple but it hags low as I think the hangers are a bit too long. Other than that it installs pretty easily.

The Bassani is nice as well but defintely louder. Money doesn't always bring happiness. People with ten million dollars are no happier than people with nine million dollars ~ Hobart Brown

So should I just go for a quiet true dual system? I'm going to go scavenge the dyno area for info. '03 SRT-4 50 trim turbo + support
