Love it--most of the time it is the kids who want it to sound mean lol. Draw attention even if the bark is worse than the bite. To an tuner like me------sounds like trailer trash... Now headers and a cam with a tune!! Fing Music Baby along with the lope!!!!

I'm running an open hole where my POS cutout used to be. No
Tune and no problems. It sounds like a beast.

I think it's pretty tame compared to the catbacks a lot of people like to put in, I wanted to hear my truck, and I know it's faster, over a tenth with it still in the way, gonna find out how much faster with it completely gone soon

I have a video of my 6.2 with a muffler delete and the resonator left on. Sounds very nice, it shakes your chest under full throttle. I will upload this evening.

I had cold start misfires with my afe stage 2 intake no tune so just put the oem intake back on with a hiflo filter and it runs great again.

Don't put a turndown on it, if anything angle the exhaust so it aims out from underneath the vehicle, not down at the ground
