X pipe is coming in next week. There's a raspiness at mid rpms that I'm hoping the x pipe will get rid of.

There's a drone in fifth on the freeway. I'm used to it now, I am also hoping that the x pipe will mellow it out a bit.
Overall it's not bad. Sound is what I did it for. Love to hear my motor.

Default did this a few months ago but the drone got to me. easy fix though

just had them weld 2 12" glasspack together (looks kind of like a muffler actually) and install them before the tips. Took all the drone away but the aggressive tone is still there.

Default It was Insight Auto Glass they approached me at the Carwash.

Waterworks on Broadway and 3rd I think. They always have a guy out there.
