Michael is right about the dumps. I had them for about six months they were cool at first , but they got old pretty fast. When my car would shift gears (AOD) as soon as the RPM's dropped the drone inside the car would rattle your brains.

I have turndowns/dumps and it isn't loud at all inside my car. Well, then again, it's not my daily driver either, so I like hearing it.

One thing about running no tailpipes, if there are any small leaks in the underside of the car, the exaust will find its way inside the car.

Yeah I can see them being fun if it isn't your daily driver. When I was just out screaming down the backroads playing around they sounded great. It was during the everyday stop and go driving that they got annoying.
