Yeah.......sorry bud, but I dont like it either. Too much "snap, crackle, pop" if you ask me....but that's what is good about exhaust....everyone has a different idea of what sounds good. If you like it, that's all that matters, right?

I bet if you re-installed the catalytic converter(s), it would mellow right out.

I don't think it sounds too bad but it does cackle quite a bit. I'd like to hear a clip of you driving away from the camera at about half throttle. I think it would give a better idea of how it sounds going down the road verses just revving the engine in park.

Yea load on the engine really makes a difference to exhaust. I also think the camera was too close to get a good idea of what it sounds like, or it was too windy... I would try the drive by, and post another.
