Anyone in Arlington/Rosslyn with TRD Exhaust?

Hi all,

Is there anyone in Arlington, VA (I'm in Rosslyn) area that has the TRD exhaust installed on their FR-S/BRZ? I just had the TRD exhaust installed on my BRZ, and I'm not fully convinced it was installed correctly. Had it installed by a mechanic in the family in Chicago while I took some time off to visit family there, and on the drive back to DC it was obnoxiously loud (boomy sound), to the point where I could barely hear the radio (70-75mph). Definitely not something I was expecting, as all the reviews and the videos say it's a relatively 'quiet' exhaust - the one I heard in person a couple months before installing was from the outside.

Before looking for a shop here in the area to check for exhaust leaks, thought it would be smart to compare to another car, and to meet a fellow Toyobaru owner as well. There's the bi-weekly Fairfax meet I could try to go to, but my schedule always seems to conflict with that event. If anyone is able/willing to meetup, please PM me.

Cheers,
Tom
