Professor, I tried PMing you back, but I don't know if it was sent? I bought my cats and X pipe from Summit Racing. Cat part#MPE-99334HM and the X pipe part#MPE-10790. I have a 6 month old daughter, so I know where you are coming from!(LOL)

Anyway, I like the sound of the exhaust this way because IMHO, it sounds better than stock, but it is not obnoxious and it doesn't drone on the highway. I think if I wanted it louder I would by aftermarket mufflers. Good luck.

All the best,
Dave
