Alright, just got my car back and heres the verdict....
The muffler looks and fits great, although I am a little disappointed with the sound. After reading all the threads on here talking about how load it is and all the draoning etc. I was expecting something more. I went expecting the car to be LOAD but its not really, you can just definitely hear it now but its definitely softer sounding then the rogue engineering dms exhaust I had on my e46. So I think I'm going to leave it like this for a bit and maybe think about removing the last resonator to get more volume. Also to my surprise the muffler shop only charged me $40 for install.

Should you find the muffler is too loud, I can arrange for a resonation cone from B&B! BTW congrats on the muffler install!
