Testing placement of new mic

I had the mic placed over one side of the exhaust, next time I will have it centered to see if it sounds different.

Sounds way better than all the wind noise you would get when installing the cam on the outside...
Did you have to run a cable all the way from the exhaust to the camera up front on the dash?

Yes, I did run it with the cable, doesnt look the greatest, but worked pretty well. Black electrical tape doesnt do anything to the finish on the car if you remove it and dont let it bake in the sun.

I see you must have watched some of my vids when i started using the mic. LOL . Now thats so much better sounding then just hearing wind noise. Great vid. Was waiting to see if anyone else would get the mic. I got the mic for track days coming cant wait, AWESOME

put it on the dash corner of the windshield, close all doors, and crank up the bass! Oops, that's for SPL, besides you need a meter
