So basically you are not running the cat converter? And you are using the OBX cat back exhaust. If thats what you are doing then with the cut out closed, its going to be loud. I had a Megan racing catback, high flow cat which is basically a straight pipe, and a budget y pipe and the car was loud. I have a vid on my other computer but i am too lazy to power that one up.

your car will be loud, especially when the cout out is open, when istalling my y-pipe i turned on the car without having bolted it up to the cat and it was crazy loud and obnoxious. i am also running a straight pipe and its not bad cuz i have a greddy sp muffler which are known for quietness. i had on an apexi muffler before and it sounded like s*** and loud...very loud

Wireless do you have a resonator somewhere in there? If not then its going to be very very annoying.
