I'll post some pics, sound clip might take some time as I have never done one before. I have a camcorder but doubt that will translate the true sound very well. Any suggestions on making a good clip?

How's the resonance (cabin howl) between 2-3k? Would one's wife comment on how loud it is while sitting in traffic bumping along?

I've read and heard about other owners comment on resonance between 2-3k rpm. If it's there I haven't noticed it as such, yes the exhaust is much more aggresive and louder than stock, above 4k it it's really wicked. There is also a burble and popping noises when decelerating or downshifting (which I like, sounds like my old C5 'vette with a Manaflow exhaust). I can say it does not sound like the GHL mufflers that I have heard and personally didn't like, it (GHL)sounded nore raspy at 2-3k than throaty like the Stebro.
