Yes im very aware i've made a few posts about type-r's lately and i'll make sure this is my last for "a while" :p

Just curious why they sound so different when in the powerband. The ATR sounds a lot more 'grunty' and the CTR sounds a lot more high pitched ? I definitely prefer the sound of the ATR, its just that bit more menacing sounding to me.

If in the future if I got a CTR..is it easy to get the CTR sounding a bit deeper like the ATR with just a decent induction kit or is it the ATR's exhaust system too?

I am not talking about making it much 'louder', just a bit more menacing sounding like the ATR. Naturally i'd still want it to stay reasonably quiet when in low rev's.

Maybe someone can shed some light on this as to why they sound so different? :D
