How is it inside the cabin of the car?....Is it lound adn uncomfortable, or you don't even acknowlege it unless yo ureally accelerate hard?
It's not noticeable inside the cabin unless you accelerate, pushing the pedal. Cruising or coasting is pretty quiet. No constant droning.

Here's a sound clip from the interior cabin...


No spirited driving involved, simply cruising around the neighborhood. I'll try to capture another one this morning on the freeway.

Thanks Frank. When/if you create another video from the interior, can you talk or make some other sound? I ask, 'cause it is hard to callibrate the sound - if I turn my speakers down, then it's really quiet, but if I turn my speakers up, then it's really loud. By having another noise at the same time, it will help to determine the relative loudness of your magnaflow mod. Make sense?

Thanks,
Randy...

I'll turn on the radio on the way home... took a couple of guys out to lunch today, city driving - no issues with the conversation in the cabin.
