Installation was straight forward. I was off today so I wasn't in a hurry. I used ramps on the back wheels which allowed plenty of workspace. Took me about 1.5 hours.

I cut the mid exhaust off with a sawzall with 20t carbide blade. Took about 3 minutes. The weld in some places were .25 wide. I cut a nice line just outside the outer edge of the weld. Nice clean cut. Very little deburring was needed.

With the front pipe propped up I added the resonator, mid pipe and tail pipe. I first leveled the tailpipe and worked forward.

The piping, clamps, welds and resonator are all high quality.

The sound is deep and clean. There is a little more drone between shifts in the 25-35mph range than I noticed at highway speeds.

It sounds like a Maverick

After spending the afternoon driving around, I have learned a lot about this exhaust. It looks great! It's a quality set up.

Based on my likes and dislikes, I plan on experimenting with a silencer insert to tune it the way I want it.

I installed an exhaust insert this morning. No packing. Drove around town and on the interstate. The insert toned away what I didn't like and deepened the sound even more.

The original set up toned itself down after heat up but still not to my preference. With the insert, the sound is much more my taste and eliminated the drone.

I decided to reinstall the factory exhaust. Easy if your cut is clean. In my experience, SS pipes ring, and they rang my ears off. Your opinion may vary. It's a 4 not an 8. There is no duality.

Lol, that courtship was short lived.

Just wasn't feeling it or?
