I isntalled the Gibson exhaust this morning.
Took about 40 minutes to remove the stock muffler, most of the time was spent trying to remove the damn hangers.
The Gibson was a breeze to put on, took 20-30 mins.
I must say it's too loud for my liking. The girlfriend is going to be pissed for a few hrs once she drives it
I'm going to get a midpipe made with a resonator put in, should really tone it down.

No I don't I can try and get one at some point today.
Start up sounds great imo, but for daily driving its WAY too loud and this is coming from a 23 year old that's been modding cars for 8-9 years.
1500-2000rpms is insane how loud the cabin gets, hopefully by next weekend a resonator is on.

I've driven 150kms or so on the new exhaust, it seems to be a lot quiter now. It's still a little loud around 2,500rpms... not sure if i'll end up getting a 2nd resonator or not.
Mileage seemed to have taken a bad hit. Getting around 18L to 100kms right now compared to 15 or so without my 33's and stock exhaust.

it sounds alright, its hard to tell though how loud it actually is! Are you gonna keep it like that or put a resonator on now that you been driving with it now for awhile? just wait till summer when the top and the doors are off. The MBRP exaust has hum that really loud when i'm cruising on the disralie overpass next to the concrete divider! It would be nice to hear it on the 6th though

I think i'm going to leave it for now. It's probably going to be too loud for trips on the highway, it seems to be the loudest right around 2,200rpms.
The video doesn't really let you hear how loud it gets in the cabin.
