OEM exhaust is surprisingly very clean...
not bad at all for 7500 miles and 1 winter!

had to set the mood with some anticipation before adding the rest
(and my daughter woke up and wanted to climb all over me and my phone!)

Ok heres the deal...

OMMGG!! THIS THING ROCKS!!!!

thank you for not making me sell it! You guys rock!

1- Performance -
Absolutely more flow and absolutely more performance!
No doubt about it, I am 110% sure...The second my foot touched the gas pedal and I pulled out of the lot and onto open straight road it could not be more obvious - she wants to jump/ thrust/take off forward as if someone pulled a stuck banana out of each exhaust pipe...

2- Sound
--Key on, start - MUCH throatier and more aggressive, clean grumble..SUPER OBVIOUS that this baby has a much more open architecture exhaust
-- give her gas in park/neutral - same throatier and meaner, not offensive
-- 20-40 mph cruising giving little to no gas actually less or equal exhaust sound than before, definitely may be quieter. No drone
-- acceleration from stop in 1st or in "D" - not much louder, but absolutely much beefier and throaty

highway drive and sound clips
later on...heres some pics ( sorry for any dupes or crappy ones, in a rush so i just copied all the links and didn't look to see whats what...)

keep in mind If i was buying brand new my heart was set on borla, and I wanted to hear a dynomax before deciding, but due to past sound and experience from people/cars I have been around I wasn't really considering magnaflow too much..but the deal was too good to pass up and I let price/availability/timing somewhat dictate my first choice..figuring I can always sell it for a least what I paid if unhappy..

Well, From now on I will consider magnaflow (if it holds up)

..I think they nailed this particular exhaust - Of course everyone will have different needs/ desires but mine was to not pay new price (check!) to not sound offensive or overly "Loud" (without at least being a clean/desirable loud) and to get a deeper, grumble/rumble/growl than stock (check!) and get my other mods to work with the higher flow exhaust and combine for some noticeable gains (check!)

I cant wait to check off my last box (sounds and performs good at highway speeds or at least not annoying) ...

Prob Helps that since its got packed mufflers it was pre-broken in with 5K miles already on it..
