I guess twin/dual tip should be the correct wording. Your right, true duals would be pointless. Its just for looks to fill out the body kit I want.

Default sound without header?

How much different will the sound be without the header upgrade? I can only get the exhaust right now.

Thoughts plz!

Default magnaflow update

I am about 225 miles post-install on this cat back and so far good.

The sound a low rpm's is pretty low with a nice rumble. At cruiding speeds above 45mph the exhaust note is a little harsher than stock, but again not raspy or cheap sounding.

The set up definitly sound a little more aggresive after some heat has transfered through the system.

If the sound opens up just a little more after a few more miles, I will be very pleased with it.

What are your experiences with break in mileages on these cat back systems in general?
