It only sounds raspy when it is cold. The rasp goes away with heat. It also goes away as the exhaust breaks in. However, it does turn into something beautiful.

I decided to pick up the ICarbon exhaust, the videos made it sound preatty damn incredible, but not raspy... which is what I personally like. My performacne exhaust doesnt seem to sound as good as when I got it, but it could all be all in y head.
