    Any acceleration or gas mileage performance difference?

    Toy, maybe a little faster acceleration. It's still early to determine mph changes. I just installed them.

    Elroy, it was a tougher install than expected... but it became easier after I made all my mistakes on the one side.

    Hornblower, Thanks for the compliment. I can hear the pipes at freeway speeds and I can still hear my stereo with a volume setting of 15.

    Is the sound you hear at freeway speed a nice exhaust note sound or is it a very resonant and annoying hum?

    Horn, I wish I was able to record a video of my freeway experience... that dam wind created too much interference. Well, it sounds like a race car... you hear a low hum at freeway speeds. To me, it's not annoying and I can still hear my music. As I was riding on the freeway today, I noticed drivers ahead of me looking at their side mirror as I was approaching them from behind. I'm happy that they hear and see me.

    Your clip is very different than the TBR clip, as expected.
    Can you summarize your findings?
    Thanks for taking the time to share. Not many do that.
    BB, I wouldn't want my pipes to sound any louder than they currently are. The pipes have a nice growl and deep rumble.
