Gibson Catback Installed!

[dodder]

I just installed my Gibson Catback. It went pretty well, I took my time and it ended up taking about 2.5 hrs (I'm slow dont judge).

I was amazed at how loud it is, Damn, Its about perfect at Idle and driving low speed, I bought this because I wanted some noise but not too much. I was really looking for low noise on the highway. It is a little too loud for my taste on the highway at this time, around 60-70 mph you can hear the drone slightly, not a ton, but enough for me to wish it was less. I am hoping as I get used to it and break it in it will not be too bad. We'll see what my GF thinks.

Here is a start up Vid, more to come, quiet at idle.

I have it on my '06, I'm surprised you complain about the drone. It's really a pretty quiet exhaust but does have that nice throaty deep tone. When you open it up it makes noise though that's for sure.

It is growing on me a ton, its about perfect for a daily driver, some grunt but not to much. The highway is barely noticable, at first I thought it was but now that I am used to it I don't even notice it.

It is definitely not droning, I was being paranoid, I like a lot. I put about 250 miles on the last day since I got it, and I think it is just right cross of quiet and loud.
