I'm glad to hear the Stillen/Berk setup is drone free. The only extra question I have is how the sound differs from stock at idle and normal cruise. Do you and local bystanders know you have an aftermarket exhaust or is it completely under the radar in these ranges? I love that it comes alive with throttle, but I want to know it's there ALL the time .

I may be placing my order very soon!
Yeah, you can tell at idle. It's deeper. But it's not an intrusive 'hey everyone look at me!' kind of sound, if you know what I mean. In fact, all you need to is replay this video and listen to how it sounds before I start revving to get a sense of what it sounds like at idle.

Not sure if anyone notices when I'm just cruising, though. I've never stopped to ask!
