MRT V1.0 Installed

I got MRT V1.0 installed last Thursday.

It is loud, but that is what I wanted. Yes, you hear it all the time while driving, that is what I wanted.

MPG increased by about 4 so far.

I am just paranoid that cops will stop me and say it is too loud.

Car is driven daily about 60 miles one way commute and drone does not bother me, but it is a good sound to hear. I especially like the sound when trans is shifting down (Automatic but sounds great).

Bottom line, if you like it loud then V1.0 is what you want.........

I doubt you will have a probelm. On top of having MRT V1 I have Airaid intake, LT headers with high flow cats and I've opened up the mid pipes. My car is much more loud now than it was when all I had was MRT V1. I've never had a probelm with cops.


Congrats on getting MRT V1, I LOVE mine!

I listened to audio and watched video for months. I can say that no audio clip will replicate the actual sound. I just made up my mind and pulled the trigger knowing that if I did not like the actual sound, I could change the exhaust. I will post video soon though.

I have not heard anything to compare the sound to except the audio/video clips. It sounds like the clips but deeper and louder.

It is not loud to the point where it would annoy neighbors. In reference to loudness, I am comparing it to the stock sound.

Oh alright, well louder and deeper than the clips is nice to hear because I already love the sound of the clips as they are

Ok that's good to know, thanks
