Guys with loud cars are likely to be psychopaths

For me there's such a thing as too loud. I had a modest N20 straight piped and it was too damn much. I'd get headaches after 40 min of driving. With my current F80 it's stock pipes with flaps always open in Sp/Sp+ coded, and it's plenty of audio.

Just like those w heavy tints. Sound is overrated, but I bet lots of those ppl would take that over handling. No wonder carmakers have to pipe in sound through the speakers due to this fetish.

My catless M340 with the AWE resonated touring is awesome. I barely hear it on the highway or city ~45mph speeds but gets loud if I hammer it just as the turbo gods intended. Letting off with BM3 tunes does give a second of burble in Sport+, but in Comfort/Adaptive, burbles are off as far as I can tell. Cold start off helps early AM noise for the neighbors. Everybody wins. Who doesn't like the sound of the B58 anyway
