Love it, but it could be louder. It is really quiet for a straight threw exhaust. Magnaflow uses a HUGH resonator where the stock one is and a HUGH straight threw muffler with dual outlets. My wife thinks it is just perfect which is really what I was hoping for since she's in it everyday. If it had been really loud, she would have taken it back to the shop and had it removed while I wasn't around. And I would have gotten a I also had the guys at the shop use pieces of the original cat back system to rid the down pipe of the crushed sections which I think made the max torque output a little farther into the rpm range. To compensate, I put in the intake and TB spacer. The combo was well worth the $$. Throttle response is MUCH better and there is definitly more power through the entire rpm range. I hated the laggy throttle input and I'm still not quite used to the electronic TB.
