I'm thinking of the deep low sound from startup. It lets me know when the car is ready at the shop.

No, the rumble I'm referring to is the "vibration" you get from something like a V8 muscle car when at idle or slightly blipping the throttle.
Really hard to explain. lol

It's not the car you drive, it's how you drive it.

Thanks!Nice detailed work here.Great job
It's definitely not quiet, and I can understand it being too loud (especially in a vert). I'm going to keep it on for a while either way before I decide if I'm keeping it, right now I'm loving it.
I'll do a cold start from the outside tomorrow! My iPhone's been giving me weird grief where it starts recording, I get in the car, turn it on, rev it, etc., and then I come out and it only records the last 2-3 seconds of video. Not sure what's up with that. I need to get some sort of GoPro setup to do any driving stuff though. My hastiness to do the TSE3 install messed with my own plans to do a comparison video of:Take some videos of the exhaust sound.

Topped the car's coolant off with distilled water. It was probably short only an ounce or two but I hadn't checked the level since I flushed the coolant.
Also topped off the oil which was down a bit from the last time I checked a week or two ago. I assume it's the valve cover gasket. I'll have to order parts...

Nice work!
I am so lagging behind on updating my project thread. I am planning to replace the vanos, vcg and spark plugs soon...
