Tin-Man,
I had my standrd SPF now for 7 years, (changed to firefly) as said already you will be heard before you are even seen. I live in a very quiet area and to respect the others i keep the RPM low and short gears until im further out.
Coming home at 3am is a no no...
But just do it, but keep the RPM's down.
Happy cruising

Skippy, thanks for this advice. What is driving me nuts is I do not have my Cobra yet and I am endevoring to hear the engine sounds with different side pipes before the install begins. Also, I have'nt a clue as to the sound the car is likely to make when finally completed. Here in China there are no Cobras or high powered autos, thus the frustration. I have waited ten years for this car and its almost done, so the expectation is a killer. tin-man

A sight I'd love to see...pissing off 2 billion Communists as you roar down main street at six in the morning. 
How do you know that they just won't lock you up and impound the car for some state official's kid?!?

Dean, contrary to popular opinion, there are only about one hundred million party members [comunists] who control this country, the rest of the folks are like you and me trying to earn a decent living and generally mindin' their own business. Only issue they only get to have one kid and that's a shame. But I certainly can see myself raisin' hell driving thru Red Square in Beijing. I would have to be blind drunk and at peace with myself since, I would eventually be surrounded by PLA [Peoples Liberation Army] police with AK47's get accused of disrupting the peace, locked up and they sure as hell would throw the keys away. The car would definitley go to some party member on some pretext and not his kid, screw the kid. I can see it now, the dude fires it up and does a 360 and ****s his pant, tries to get outa the car gets bitten and hobbles away with a big loss of face. Thanks for the imagery. tin-man
