Tried to go on my usual morning walk today, but it was too damn cold. Made it to my car, sat in it to try and warm myself up for a bit, then it was back to the office. No walking on the trails around the office today.
Outside temp was not even below 40F; it was 47F. But damn 10 mph wind gusts made it feel way colder. My vest was not enough to keep me warm. Should have brought a full jacket.
On the bright side, the Screamo mix that Spotify generated today is fire!
Ever since the Mazda 3 Turbo came out in 2021, I've been on the lookout for a great sounding aftermarket exhaust upgrade. I'm mainly looking for an upgrade in sound. I don't want it loud like a typical Mazdaspeed 3 exhaust setup. But I'd still like a deep, classy sounding exhaust.
And I think this is the one. It has that deep bassy sound like from the Magnaflow exhaust, but this sounds deeper. Maybe that's due to the 80mm downpipe? It doesn't seem to be as loud as the Corksport and Borla, at least not as attention seeking.
Unfortunately, this seems to be a custom built exhaust. At least you can glean some useful info from the video though. It is using 3 inch piping, with a split design like the Corksport/MBRP exhaust. Sound is managed via two Cortek mufflers (a brand I've never heard of before). You can probably substitute those mufflers for comparable bottle resonators from Vibrant, but I mean the Cortek mufflers in this video sound so good, why not just use them.
