Audio
Don't need any. I have the intoxicating sound of a straight 6 sucking through 3 Weber DCOE 45 fed to a 9.5 lb flywheel backed by a 5 speed transmission to a R200 limited slip rear end with 3.70 gear ratio trying to put over 300Hp to the ground in a sub 2200 lb car with R compound tires. The exhaust sound is supported by Borla. All the entertainment one can handle, It demands attention.
