The title says it all . Got it installed today and the difference between stock and RPI is phenomenal and other than the droning around 1500 rpm (is that normal?), it is perfect. Got it from Trinity Autosport courtesy of Nerweezy, got it shipped(international) . Great job RPI and Trinity Autosport

If I recall correctly the droning is normal during the break-in period, it gets better as you use it. Congrats on the mod RPI FTW!!!

Congrats. Yes the sound is amazing -- so much more aggressive than stock.

Yep.. the exhaust is a bit lower than the stock though, wider gap between the bumper and tips. That's the way it is right?

Keep us updated please if the droning goes away, thats one of the main things holding me back from getting one.
