My morning commute was awesome this morning listening to my new exhaust.
Radio muted as the sound is too nice not to listen too while going through the gears.

The exhaust note has definately changed to a throatier, full bodied, but not overly load roar. Strangely sounding Lion like if that makes any sense.

It really sounds like I imagined a racy sports car should sound. With all 4 cats still in place the volume has not increased much which is also nice since its not obnoxious.

I also noticed the faster throttle response and found myself reaching shift points a bit quicker.

This is just the first day driving it and I'm quite pleased with my $320 investment.

Apparently the muffler needs to break in, and so the tone will continue to improve for the next ~100 miles I've heard.

Big Thumbs up on this easy DIY and modestly priced upgrade.
