I have the Ford long tube headers, and the Ford racing "muffler". I LOVE the sound.
I also live in a *very* noise sensitive neighborhood. I actually want to try to get along. I can drive in and out of my neighborhood - pretty quiet.
However, on startup - at really roars. Really....
In discussion with Torrie - the reason for the initial blast is to warm up the cats - for emissions..
As part of my discussions with Torrie when he was here for the MN event - he indicated that the initial blast could be programmed out of the start sequence.
Net, net - besides a real strong and safe tune (see related post) - my cold start up blast (which I really like BTW) is way (way) dialed back. Torries new tune file really takes care of it.
I was impressed with Torrie. Now even more.
