It's got the nice low rumble that I love, but for me (an old fart) it seems to be just a little on the loud side. It's not something that I can't live with, but if I could easily make it better then I think I'd want to try.

Would swapping back in my stock frontpipe, thus adding 1 more resonator in the mix, quieten it a little? I still have all my stock pieces and would be fairly easy to do...but I don't want to even go to that trouble if it won't gain me anything. I would have to add an O2 bung behind the stock cat if I add the stock frontpipe back in...I have my second O2 sensor mounted behind the cat on the JDL frontpipe.

Any thoughts?
The greddy sp elite muffler with an oem mid pipe is "adult friendly". The best exhaust to me is one I can barely hear. The so elite with JDL op fp and header still makes some noise but it is far within exceptable IMO
