Thanks, I should have seen that in the original post, my apologies.
Does that muffler replace the original mid mount muffler and is it a bolt in replacement? ie will it bolt up to the original pipes either side? or is some mods required to fit it up?

Mine sounds raspy for 2 seconds on cold start, but after that always maintains a low down rumble. Had the same set up on my 14' so I went with the same for my current one.

If you have completely stock then the midpipe would need to be cut to accommodate the muffler. But most people have already deleted that for the X or H pipe.
you would probably only need an extension pipe from 2.5” down to 2.25” so that it fits into the stock headers.
the other end would just be a band clamp but you may need an extension depending on the length of the muffler compared to the stock one.

Is it loud enough ?.
how does it compare to the stock setup?.

I currently have an stype catback with hpipe. I know it will be quieter but don’t want it too quiet.

Definitely not quiet at all. But not obnoxiously loud. No drone what so ever & deep low rumble. The thing is there are no decent videos that will show you the sound. At least I never felt like it was coming out well in any video over any phone.

Couldn’t get the 40 series to fit.
Too big. It would fit but would be hitting the hand brake mechanism.
Might need to consider 44 or Super 10.

The only thing I miss about old school sound is the quick return to idle after revving the motor.
Computer controls for emissions call for a slow return to idle which kills the killer sound effect of old, like a light flywheel provides.

You mean Rev hang ?
Some tuners can actually tune this out

Didn't know the term, but sounds right.
I'll have to search for a vid on this, thanks!

Well said brother, completely agree.
