Picked mine up today and it sounds great!!! I had high-flows installed with custom bent mid-pipes. It sounds freakin grrrrreeeeeeaaaaaaaat! Already had a Gen 1 pull up next to me about 15 minutes ago and we ran eachother. It was no contest here but a nice lookin Gen 1. I'm in love with my tips...I'll be in the garage for a few hours rubbing them down....LOL

Where did you find those Nitto Tires? Do you have the full description/size of them? I like that you have drag radials on the stock rims. How do they hook up? Do you get any spin?

Any chance of getting a sound clip of the exhaust?

I got the tires at Discount Tire. They are Nitto 555R Drag Radials in 305/45/18. They are pretty gummy and hook nicely. They still bark/spin on the 1-2 shift, but not as loud as the F1's.

I don't have anything to record a decent sound clip with. But there's sound clips out there of pretty much the exact same setup. They really don't do it justice though. You "feel" the rumble in person.

I have the silver bullet with long tubes and h/f cats and it sounds like a monster and yes it gets louder after you put some miles on it. I guess it doesnt help that the cats are getting hollowed out from race fuel either

Well that picture was taken just a few hours after I got my Silver Bullet. Not sure how long I can keep 'em that shiny. Anyone got any cleaning secrets?
