Bangs get louder as it builds boost. I hear it tends to be a little hard on turbos. I can build full boost in neutral with my foot on the clutch.

Stock Exhaust. MS lets you set it to whatever rpm you want. I want to keep it pretty low to help save my trans.

Not quite as cool, but here is one of my tests after the new exhaust was installed ...

That's at 3500 RPM I think, cutting 7 of 9 spark events. Hysteresis around 70 maybe?
