    thanks, may have to look into that. its only slightly smaller than the flowmaster muffler i have now so maybe a shop could just cut that one out and fit this on in with a small piece of tubing added.

    Its quiet at cruise and idle. At 72mph on Highway I barely hear it, no in cabin drone. It has deep tone, no high pitched rice burning civic sound.

    When I get on it all hell brakes loose :D

    I also had my 2nd set of cats cut out and straight piped so for trucks with all cats intact it will be even quieter.

    I am not claiming any HP or TQ gains, mainly because of the fact that my butt dyno is not calibrated well...lol

    Did you get any gains or losses with this muffler? Also is the sound honestly cool or still kinda wimpy?

    Gains are highly debatable unless I would dyno the truck before and after. Hypothetically yes since its straight through design unlike the stocker.

    To me it sounds good, deep tone...

    All of this was super helpful. I'm looking at dyno charts for the TRD catback exhaust and the magnaflow. They both sound great, but I'm all for the hp and gas mileage gain.

    This was all very helpful. Both magnaflow and TRD exhaust sounds great. I'm all about the hp and gm gain.. I'm looking at dyno charts now of both exhaust.
