Ha!  My Focus is too loud for speaker phone too.  It's that wicked exhaust and intake that SVT put on this thing.

are you running stock intake/exhaust?

I dunno about SVTF's, but the SVTC's exhaust was pretty quiet until you hit about 3500 rpm when it sounded so good. The SVTC's intake is a closed cold air intake (conical but has airbox around it and is fed from fender). Do you guys have the same thing?

Wow, you think that's loud? You should drive a Swift sometime.

You should drive the road sometime.

I was on the way back to college on I-10 and recieved a text message. I was like "Mom, take the wheel so I can respond", in a totally joking manner. She was like "Ok, I used to do this all the time as a kid. My friend XX would do the pedals and shifts, and I would steer."


I was in shock.  :lol:
?Do you expect me to talk?"
"No, Mr Bond. I expect you to die!?

The exhaust on the SVTF is fairly loud even at idle.  It's the only 4 banger I've ever heard that actually growls when you get on the gas too.  The intake is a ram air style and it is stock.  The thing about the SVTF is that SVT did such a good job with everything that there just about isn't anything you can do to make more power outside of a custom tune (which I have) or forced induction.  Aftermarket exhausts and intakes generally don't make any more power or actually lose power.
