i guess i need to go invest in a test pipe because it's way too quiet for me
all the parts are perfect quality....definitely top notch.

Sweet! So the Spoon N1 + T1R b-pipe are not much louder than stock? Wow... some folks have posted that the N1 is a pretty loud muffler, so I guess this is yet another example of how subjective exhaust sound levels are with different owners.

It's strange... today, my exhaust setup seems quieter. It could very well be that I'm just getting used to it, although when I floored it a few times, it was pretty damn loud (but not swarm-of-bees-in-a-fartcan buzzy ).

I felt like my head was going to explode trying to loosen the nuts at the catpipe/b-pipe (awkward angles, I don't have a lift, and I didn't let the PB Blaster penetrate long enough), but I finally got it. Thanks for the head's up on the header bolts. I think I'll spray 'em this weekend and then work on my hazard switch.
