You're sounding good. There's nothing like the feeling I get in mine when the rpm climbs above 1600 and moves steadily (and within the limits of the law) toward redline....... Dang!
here's the link of the J pipe that i mentioned earlier on my post. I think this eliminates the drone.

Thanks beejay. That's interesting..... I'll keep that in mind. And I'll make sure I get back to you in about a month. What I've worked on is non-invasive to the exhaust flow and already meets the primary objective of greatly reducing drone at highway cruising speeds, but there is a bit more work to be done. thanks again.

So, went to the garage this afternoon and handed in my beauty to a hippy looking exhaust guy

Will update soon with sound video and my opinion on sound and power gain!

So far this is the progress guys

How much did this setup cost you? Looking at doing the same thing
