    hey John

    Twin sound means you can open or close the valves to make it quiet or loud ( loud is similar to Cap 3 ) where Cap 3 is always loud without the option to close the valves

    I been told the Cap 3 is louder than the twin sound when its opened

    I have the Cap 3....izzzzz niceeeeeeeeeee

    Please be careful with the capristos as many cars we have seen here in AZ have melted the third brake light.

    Actually, the twin sound Capristo with the bypass engaged is louder than the Capristo 3. It is even stated in Capristo's website and also on several other websites. This is the reason I went with the twin sound myself. My ship also informed me the twin sound was the loudest as well.

    If you liked the sound of an open valved exhaust why not get a valveless race type setup instead of have the fancy gizmos and remote controls from the Capristo setup?

    Agree that the twin sound is louder -when open - than the Level 3. But having seen both, the twin sound seems to emit a harsher sound - more F1, but not easy on the ear for any length of time.
    Having agonized for a while, I opted for the Level 3. Sooooo glad I did. Simple, raw and effective - without the largely unnecessary gizmos.(IMHO)

    by unplugging the vacuum hoses is the exhaust valves fully open?

    From what I've heard the twin sound bypasses the muffler on open mode whereas cap 3 goes through the muffler. Twin sound is LOUDER but cap 3 sounds much better - more f1 sounding and not as droning. If you google videos on cap 3 and twin sound you should be able to hear the difference. Cap 3 sounds better

    Not sure if that's entirely correct but from what I recall

    Three reasons why I like having the ability to silence the exhaust are:
    A. I usually silence my exhaust coming into my neighborhood so I am not that jerk neighbor waking up everyone at night especially when I have been out on the town.
    B. It is way easier to have a conversation with your passenger without having to talk above the exhaust.
    C. I have a pretty expensive stereo and sometimes I would like to listen to it at reasonable levels bs having to turn it up above the exhaust.

    Now, of course when I don't want to do any of the three above and truly have hat bad azz F1 sound I can have it with the click of a rrmote. Twin Sound Capristo truly provided the absolute best of both worlds.
