We are extremely impressed with the sound and fitment. It is a really nice piece. We will have video posted up this afternoon.

Sometimes I see people write about bends, larger resonators and mufflers in the exhaust, and I think some don't understand how this works.
As a rule of thumb and general saying, yes a straight through pipe would provide the best gains. BUT it's not that simple. you have to consider sound and resonance when designing a proper exhaust.
For example (just a general example), the difference between a straight through pipe and a pipe with bends might be 1-2 HP, BUT the difference in sound and elimination of resonance is incredible. Isn't the loss of 1-2 HP worth the proper and rich sound the exhaust provides?
I used to think exactly like some people, where I just wanted a straight pipe and that's it. Later on I have done my research and have understood there is way more into it than just welding pipe. I learned the hard way and hope other people can learn more about it before committing my mistakes. :thumbsup:
