Default I really like it

I installed my system three days ago and thought I would write a breif report
First the craftmanship is excellent , this system is replacing my stillen cbe. I got the 18" res with cf mufflers. This system is 27lbs lighter than stillen and the quality isn't even in the same league.
The install was very easy and the fit was perfect at the first try , all the clearances were ideal . The only issue I had was the stock steel gaskets coming from the cats , were about 3/16ths smaller than the id of the system so I made my own .
I have headers and berk hfc's and when I started the car the sound was definatly louder , but the car sounded strong , mean , yet refined. Idle is a very nice deep smooth purr , and the moment you touch the throttle its there ! Gone is the annoying rasp and the system makes the car seem like a serious high performance sports car . The sound is never obnoxious but it is strong , the car is clearly more responsive and truelly feels like it breaths freely and revs out freelly . I love the sound now and mid to top end is pure music !
This system is everything I hoped it would be and has been the best mod in quality and performance I have done yet . You will not regret getting it if you trully like a agressive yet classy sound . Yes there is some drone at 2000 to 2500 rpm but I plan on installing some sound matts.
I have dynoed it before and plan on doing it tomorrow to see the gains and will post the results.
The tips are angled and fit the body like the stock tips did , which I prefer , I really have no complaints , JOB WELL DONE TONY !!!!

Be advised that you will need to cover a lot of surface area with some heavy duty mass loaded vinyl sound deadening sheets to have even minimal impact on the drone.

So much for the weight savings.
