What size did you go with? The 22" muffler? Glad you like it.

I had a Borla Pro XS before mine, had it for 5 years and I think the insides were gone b/c it was fairly loud at the end of its life. My Tahoe sounds stock now unless I get on the gas, much better on the highway as well, almost no drone at all (only slightly at 2200rpm).

I might have a brand new mag bullet for sale, 14 in case, 6 around, 3in and out. I think judging by these vids it will be too quiet for my liking... Just thought I would throw it out there....
