    Well I guess I would have been more impressed with the sound if I hadn't drove my Harley to work the last couple days.

    Will post Video on Monday.

    Took before, without any Resonators, and with the Glass Pack Delete Kit installed.
    Will do a Drive By as well.

    Initial thoughts were, "Damn this thing is too quiet with just the small, oval, factory mufflers, Should have ordered the Delete Kit without the Glass Packs"

    Then I took it to, guess where, Yes, the Gas Station, about 12 miles from the house :)

    At 1800 RPM, there is just enough DRONE to let you know you need to down shift a gear.
    But at 4500-6500, holy shit, like kicking in the dual 4-barrels,
    (I realize, most of you don't understand, ask your dad)

    All-in-All, VERY HAPPY.
    My wife says it now purrs at idle, then roars from 2000-up.
    Should have been like this from the factory.

    FYI: Very simple installation,

    Cut the pipe 10" from the muffler bracket, yes, he allowed plenty to over lap, still checked 3-4 times before cutting.
    Remove the two hanger brackets per side.
    Slide the NEW Kit on.
    Re-install the hangers, and tighten the clamps.
    Takes longer to remove and re-install the chrome tips than anything.

    Very easy, and well thought out.

    Grate Work Blastin Bob :cheers:

    yep, cutting off those heavy boat anchor resonators will help. I have just a straight replacement pipe for mine, with the Solo exhaust I have.

    Before, with STOCK Resonators
    then without resonators
    then with Bustin Bob's Glass Pack resonators.

    Why did they (Mopar) use 2 1/2" mufflers with 2 3/4" exhaust?
    At least they did a factory x-pipe.
