    Installed the 3 inch MBRP exhaust. I'm exhausted myself yanking those hangers. Lol.

    Working on my video and blending with better sound recorder.

    If you want to hear my Samsung s8+ recording it's on instagram..

    I think you can see from a browser without an account

    My twinsie is synching up with me. Lol

    Was your box banged up?

    Don't forget to cut the front pipe down.

    Removed tip from stock catback and jammed it into the new exhaust. It was a pita to remove from stock exhaust.

    Here's a sound clip of stock vs MBRP 3 inch single using my Zoom H4n Pro sound recorder. It picks up the low frequencies better than a cell phone. Recorded from same distance and microphone settings to compare volume and sound.
    I'm still working on my YouTube video.
