Yes I am glad that you guys have pointed this out. Makes the purchase all the more worthwhile. lol

haha still too quiet? sounds like it is time to delete the secondary cats as well....when you throw on a pulley kit, the exhaust pitch gets lower and under WOT is very nice (at least I have noticed this). headers will obviously help as well. i like the way my exhaust sounds, but i may be deleting the secondary cats and getting headers as well. we will see.

here is what my exhaust sounds like as is: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_mLELW8p1uI

This is what it sounds like with rear cat's removed and magnaflow front cats. This is a very old video from when I first got mine, but I think it sounds great. Have since added headers but it didn't do much to the tone in my opinion.
Res delete or more recent here on the dyno.
