Review: Stillen Catback Exhaust

Fixed the scale...it didn't keep the formatting after submitting the post.

I'll get some decibel readings on the exhaust tomorrow for an objective comparison. It's definitely quieter than the muffler delete. The delete truly hurt my ears inside the car during acceleration over 4k RPM. The Stillen never does this but during heavy acceleration you'll surely hope a cop isn't around to hear it. The main difference is that the Stillen CBE is much more refined sounding and is much quieter though still very audible at idle and low RPM. The muffler delete was in your face at all times....very fun at low RPMs but shaking panels and damaging hearing when accelerating. (the delete would be awesome on a track day, but not EVERY day)
