I sure am! I'm just adjusting the rest of the exhaust to daily drive acceptable levels, lol. Just waiting on a chrome coated overpipe to match the header then my Q300 goes on.

Haha see man? Too loud! It's fun to drive around sounding like a pure race car but I don't think people really grasp how loud this little car can be. I do miss how my car sounded loud at times though.

Still loving the headers. Have a rattle in the flexes still but it'll get taken care of soon I hope.

Yeah, 3" is no joke. There's no taming down the rasp/drone without a turbo. The pipe size is just too big. Performance is there, but the daily driving noise in my head on the inside is too much. I might make some turbo user happy if they want to buy it.

Honestly IMO 3" is just added noise unless you are trying to get 500+ and even then the best muffler of all wold be the turbo

You're absolutely right. I was hoping I could keep the 3" in place for turbo later on, but the added volume is just too much inside.

Unless I missed the announcement, this is their 3" system they were about to release out to everyone. It took about 3 months to have built and now I'm considering selling it. Sucks, but I don't see myself going turbo for a long time.
