I'm not completely sure, bit it sounded like the System Upgrade exhaust was outside the frequency range of the microphone. It could sound that bad, but some mics have made my exhaust sound similar on video and it really doesn't.

honestly, almost all of them sound 100x better when driving. Sitting there revving was nothing like the sound echoing through the mountains. The Sterlin exhaust (last) was awesome. I'm a big fan of the ARK and HKS sound, but the ARK hands so low and doesn't exactly line up properly with the hangers.

From my recollection a few of them did have other mods, but they aren't listed. Additional mods will change the sound of the exhaust, but it shouldn't be THAT significant.
Also, remember that every video camera or audio clip will make exhausts sound different. It's hard to capture REAL sounds with a camera. This was to show a comparison of each exhaust on the same camera, so while the tones may be different in real life this can show which are deeper or raspier than others.

Ahh true true. I recorded a video of my car in a garage and all I heard was engine... no exhaust. But when we were IN the garage recording it, all you heard was exhaust, lol. Very awkward what he camera feels like picking up.
