No, the gain is slim to none(at least thats what i noticed). People do not plan on gaining much horsepower with an axle back exhaust though, it's mainly for sound. And yes the SLP's are loud, but not unbearable loud, just perfect if you ask me.
And there is almost no interior drone with the SLP's at all, unlike many other exhaust systems(Borla)
Have not noticed any loss or gain. Fuel mileage has went down, since I keep my foot in it more so hear the sweet sound! I have resonance(drone) 1800-2k, not much but, it is noticeable. Nice deep idle, not too loud. WOT they scream!
