My muffler in general sounds like a big piece of crap that's about to fall off. In the morning at cold starts rattles like crazy. Tap the accelerator in neutral and it rattles at 3k. Tap the gas in first/second and it rattles. Sounds like a cheap crappy muffler.

I just got my FI exhaust and HFC installed this past weekend from Tony and company and I was going to write up an elaborate review but cant sum it up any better than Mike already has in this thread...

So I will share my general thoughts:

I drove down to Northridge on friday and it took about 2 hrs to install. Balancing the mufflers and re-adjsting the hangar is what took the longest, everything else went as smoothly as possible...just as mike mentioned they had to break 2 of the bolts on the HFCs because they are torqued on so hard....

The sweetest sound was upon startup! god damn, I bust a nut when Tony first started it up....i drove down with my gf and she was not happy with that

but if there is one thing I want to emphasize is that videos do not do this justice at all...going in I thought that Mike's youtube videos sound really awesome, and it couldnt get any better, but when you hear it in person,its ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS, i didnt know it was possible, but it sounded 100x better than it did in the video....

aside from that, I ripped it all the way up 101 from LA to San Jose for 6 str8 hours, and had the time of my life...absolutely no complaints whatsoever

for those of you that have ordered it already, when you hear that first startup, you'll realize that it was worth the wait!

and those who have not ordered it or are on the fence...by ALL MEANS, jump on it! This is a GREAT PRODUCT and AWESOME crew that puts it together, they really know their ****, and it sounds like "sex on wheels"

holla!

Dezi,

How does it sound while crusing at a constant speed on the highway? Is there any "drone".

Thanks
