I installed BBK xpipe and Pypes Violator cat back. It sounds badass at low throttle and revving at no load. On the street at WOT going through the gears I think I break the sound barrier with a screaming high pitched sound. At 3000 rpm plus or so, under load, it sounds like the Tin Man being sawed in half. Cruising speed of 70 at 1500 to 2000 rpm is pretty quiet with only a low hum and not a big deal.

I know it is supposed to have a raspy sound, but I think it is only a ticket waiting to happen, and with my luck it will be just after leaving the bar. I may order an H pipe today.
