same reason most 1.6 civics are louder than celicas. it's just the way the company designed it. not saying the intentionally made one car louder than the next, but just a result. one thing i can't figure out though, is why my car is louder than my wifes car. both 6gc's, both have 5sfe, factory exhaust with canister muffler and mine is outlandishly louder than hers....
