Holy crap what a difference. The same tone is there (if not a bit bassier) but it's way louder now. I was expecting it to be a little louder but not this much, lol.....I like it a lot better actually. I haven't even tried the upper rpms and I can already tell a big difference, just from idling and normal driving.....so for those of you with full off road exhaust wanting more sound....get high flow heads

I just took it out for an easy drive just to see if things were right.....they seem to be. I'm now letting it cool down overnight and I'm gonna re-torque the heads/intake tomorrow.

Yeah my exhaut got louder as well. Maverick I checked my head bolts two different times (100 miles) and (1,000 miles) and they didn't budge. The intake bolts do get loose as you will find out. I also redid the valvetrain once more just to do it while the upper was off.
