    I'm contemplating doing a VF52 swap with an EWG. I'm curious if anyone that has an EWG would be willing to meet up and give me a ride so I can experience the reality of how loud it is before I pull the trigger. Anywhere in the metro would be awesome. Thanks!

    Loud. Open dump right off the header loud. It's a glorious sound.

    One perk about EWG is it's only screaming when you want it to be.

    Here's a video of my old car with an EWG:


    Then I added a SuperTrapp motorcycle muffler (had it welded onto the end of the dump tube). It helped quiet it down a bit, but still pretty loud. Here is the best video that I could scrounge up with the supertrapp installed:

    Here's a link to the muffler: https://www.summitracing.com/parts/SUP-344-1705

    There are other options for quieting it down too...some people weld on a much longer extension and much larger muffler. I wanted simple and lightweight though.

    I didn't like my EWG. It was way too loud. Having to look around before getting too deep into boost was such a hassle.

    I blame getting pulled over more on my EWG than any of the exhausts I had.
