    sounds like a tractor . lol mind giving us your thoughts on how loud it is on normal driving, cruising drone etc?

    so you removed the factory resonator and muffler, only leaving cats and borla, correct?

    You can definitely hear it during crusing speeds with the windows down but with windows up I can't hear much more than the stock exhaust. Any of my friends have said they dont think it sounds too loud at all from their perspective so I think its good. I might try and upload a inside sound clip soon.

    I think the question was fuel consumption, have you noticed any difference good or bad?

    If anything, it would simply be better fuel economy, anything that makes the exhaust flows better means easier on the engine, means better efficiency. All manufacture would just delete the exhaust resonators, muffler and run a straight pipe if there is no regulation for noise level lol.

    Interesting. Are you familiar with tuned exhausts?

    I like the wheels and trim rings. What are they off of?
