Aston Martin V8 Vantage and racing cats

Here is a AMV8 with 200 cell racing cats and fuse 22 pulled.

Sounds like a jackhammer - and that's not a compliment.

Removing the fuse 22 made me happy enough with the DB9 note. I also just did this on my neighbors AMV8 and it sounds far better than the vehicle in that video.

Kinda sounds like one of those big trucks you always see with the straight pipes. I'm with Josh on this one, it doesn't sound all that amazing imo. It IS loud though.

Sounds pretty mean... That's one of those things where people would look and say, "THAT made THAT sound????"

It sounds too much like a NASCAR car - the stock V8 Vantage sounds so great. At least other drivers will know you're there!
