Ahhh, I see. Thank you.

My exhaust isnt for everyone bc it does have a weee bit of drone on the highway but hell to me its worth the deeper tone it has during idle and revving.

Custom Catback exhaust, removed the stock resonators and replaced them with a Magnaflow Resonated XPipe. From there its straight piped back to the 4" tips. Sounds even better than this in person. $250 out the door.
That sounds great for that price! I should have done that.

Your pipes looks very tight on the diffuser in that shot. Does it have clearance? Does it (diffuser) get hot?

This was the day after I had it done, the pipes were a little tight probably a ¼" gap but have since have been adjusted to center of the diffuser holes

My friend did the deletes like arkentect and it sounds about the same as his video. Seriously I think he paid $60 bucks and it's tough sounding. If you dislike the sound then go back and play with a different muffler and exhaust setup and spend the money.
