Sounds great. Can you tell me if the closed is still louder than stock? It sounds louder but then again, you are in a parking garage so I can't really tell.

i would love if someone produced a system like this for the factory mufflers, so it would be absolutely silent when closed, but then just crazy when you open it.

Thanks for the clarification. I thought the closed setting sounded louder than stock but wasn't sure because you were in the garage. Sounds like a nice system.

What, no fly by video yet? Ah c'mon Guccimane j/k bro, seriously though I am itching to see what it sounds like inside the drivers seat and a nice flyby maybe even under some tunnels if your near a couple. Btw I love the simplicity of the whole system very well thought out!

I vote Lower Wacker drive through or Ban.

For non Chicago people, Lower Wacker drive is the place where they filmed part of the Batman movie with the Batmobile going like nuts.
