The car is def louder, but not much. It has that deepness to it now that I was missing. Cruising/freeway it is extremely quiet compared to a lot of typical setups. For now, it is just right. If I get sick of it I'll throw in a resonated testpipe or something, but as of now it is *quieter* than my evo8.

The quality was decent but for the price I got the magnaflow for and the fact that it was closer to the setup I wanted, I jumped on it. I was pulling the exhaust apart anyways for the testpipe/wideband install so I just went for it. I'm super happy.

Only snag is that the magnaflow provides a little more clearance for the carrier bearings, so it has been scraping a little right in the middle. Once I get the suspension addressed that should be no problem.
