UPS dropped off my 18" CFE package yesterday, and I had them put on today. Everything went on without a hitch, only issue was that the left rez is hanging slightly lower than the right, but the tips line up fine, so we let it be. Install took almost exactly an hour, with plenty of chit-chat and storytelling by the mechanic (probably 40 minutes of actual work). Figuring out how to get the car up on the lift without cracking the side skirts was probably the slowest part of the whole thing, ha ha.

Anyway, the exhaust sounds GREAT, and I'm very happy with the purchase. Not sure what people mean when they say there is highway drone, the system really isn't much louder than stock. It has way more bass and sounds awesome, but it's only a bit louder (at least with the 18"). I can definitely feel the HP gain with my "butt dyno", I'm going to have to force myself to chill for the next few days... 0-100 comes a lot faster than it used to.

I'll post some pics over the weekend.

Thanks Tony!
