Just a note to add. I have had my MBRP exhaust on for about 10k miles now, and it sounds like I need to tighten up some of the clamps underneath. Anyone else have a similar experience?

I'm curious about this as well. I was planning on checking all the clamps after a few hundred miles...

I had a similar issue with my Corsa Xtreme. Not sure why things loosened up a little (metal stretching, vibration, temperature changes, bolts backing off, etc...), but when I went back to check the torque settings, some of the bolts needed a little tightening.

I had Corsa. Ripped back off and put stock back on. Sounded worse than a VTEC.

Which exhaust did you get from Corsa? I went from the Sport to the Xtreme and thought both were a huge improvement, with the Xtreme being my favorite. Were they too loud for you?

my first exhaust, Flowmaster Muffler Assembly FlowFX. no improvement over stock.
Now I have the Borla Atak ( best exhaust, IMHO)
along the way I accidentally found other features to enhance / tune this set-up.
1. using the pedal commander on sport 4 (not sports-plus)
2. removing the blades from the intake.
certainly made a noticeable variation in the sound.

no exhaust will make the V-6 sound great, but it can definitely be improved upon, even made enjoyable.
