New exhaust sounds are good

Just for all of you guys, the sound of my new exhaust!

Chopped off the old system after the 02 sensor and stepped to a 2" pipe to a small magnaflow. I think I need to add a resonator to get rid of some of the typical sounds of a small displacement 4 banger, that and its rather loud.
 
wow that sounds way nicer than mine!... i wish mine was that quiet

Well that video doesn't really give you a good sense of how loud it is. As my laptop was sitting in the passenger, I think the seat is blocking a good amount of sound. It is in fact much louder in the cabin.
 
Many years ago I had a 74 X1/9 and replaced the stock exhaust with an aftermarket, Ansa IIRC. It sounded sweet, except in the cabin especially when the top was on. I never resolved the noise problem. The car was sold several months later due to an arriving baby~
