Have you ever even heard a WS2 in person?

My WS2 screams when I want it to... when I am accelerating slowly it is quiet. If I mash on the gas it gets LOUD... and not a loud rumble like you get with a fart can. It's a loud quality sound.

You don't have to like it, I just don't understand how you can say that it's "too quiet".

I just don't like an exhaust that sounds like it is queefing. A stock exhaust can be loud too, and the ws2 to me is a lot like a stock exhaust.

Not to be cocky or anything, but I would bet you $20 that if you rode in my car you would not feel that way about my WS2.

The things you have described are things I have never heard from my WS2. I almost wonder if there was something wrong with your friend's exhaust.

Did your friend have a test pipe? WS2 sounds like *** with a test pipe

I hate to disagree with you scott. I think the ws2 sounds titz. Its quite when you want it to be. But if your pushing it,it can get loud. And that's what's I am looking for. Loud exhaust remind me of some kid in school. He has a eg hatch with an extremly loud exhaust, and he's always pipping it. I can follow where is he at by listening to his loud exhaust. Loud exhaust just aint my thing.

Kenny- thanks. I actually just got them at a junk yard last week or so. Payed 150 for them. I'm pretty happy with the buy. Now I just need to decide how I'm going to paint them, powder coat or rattle can them.

And as for the drop scott- I actually have some kyb gr2 shocks that my sister just put on her car before she junked it. So I'm going to save money and just use those and then buy springs. But if I could sell the shocks for 150 I would invest in a better shock/spring combo. But I don't want a hude drop. I will be perfectly satisfied with a 1.5 drop.

GR-2's aren't really for lowering. Intended as OEM replacements, they won't handle the drop much better than stock shocks.

I knew they were oem replacement. But many people, I've read, have ran stechs with oem spec shocks and said they have lasted. That's all I am looking for. Once they go bad, I think I will uprade to something alittle better.
