Hahaha... I've actually dulled down my exhaust a notch as it was starting to give me the shits. OEM centre pipe FTW! But now when this stereo is turned up, I hear nothing from the outside of the car - at all...

Could you please convince Dylan of the same logic??

I would have gone to the kitchen, collected a brown bag, dropped my dacks, pinched off a loaf in said bag, done up dacks, stickytaped bag, placed bag in envelope, and mailed it right to your face for being such a tool.

It's ok, sometimes when we herp, we also derp.

LOL! **Insert Jedi mind trick here** "Dylan, these are not the exhaust notes you are looking for..."

Maybe for you Dylan Fullyhektikuleh, but the in-cabin noise is not my main concern! I fear your car won't last very long if I fire it up at 6.30am very many more times

I'm planning on giving the car a whole lot of cleaning love this weekend. Might even head over to the unlimited car wash on Somerville Road!

I gave mine some clean loving on the weekend.

Close front roller door, open rear roller door and drive into "Marks Custom Carwash".

Luke, I've just left my sub out of the car - once it gets put back in the exhaust is not a problem

really???

my sub and my exhaust sort of cancel each other out at certain revs... it's so wierd when you get a kick in the back from the sub but the noise from the exhaust keeps dulling down to the timing of the music... though my exhaust is a flatter tone than your 'bup bup bup bup'

i can't wait to get rid of the drone that is my exhaust note...

a reasonally quiet twin system will be the first thing i'll buy once my funds resurface from insurance ("just car" insurance want a lump sum payment up front for the first year) and getting the car engineered and stuff...

Wow, that unit looks great, and real factory looking as well, thanks for putting up pics, I always wanted to buy one of these, but decided to shirk out and shop for a single din, this install is making me think saving up a bit more for it will be worth it. Good work. Nick

Pretty normal. If both the exhaust and sub resonate at the same frequency out of phase they effectively cancel each other out.

Back on topic, are you able to upgrade the maps at a later date on the headunit?

(Tristan I meant that once I have my sub in I turn it up so loud i can't hear anything else, not that it has anything to do with the exhaust tones and frequences.. weirdo!).

Yes. Pioneer are offering a free upgrade to 2009 maps with this unit in around August this year. I'm yet to know how they do it, but I imagine it will be via and SD card.

Should be able to get firmware updates as well, same as with an mp3 player.

Nothing sexy, but a good deal none the less... Just picked up a genuine Subaru towbar for $100. I'm excited cos it means that I no longer have to use the missus Vitara to tow shit around.

Sure did... It's got some adapter that looks as though it plugs straight onto an OEM adapter.. Will have to dig through my workshop manual to find out where it lives.
