I drive mostly city so I think I can live with the drone. (I hope.) If it's not what I wanted, I'll take it back to the muffler shop and undo everything.

In terms of how it's sounds well under 3.5 k it's sounds very rich and deep but after that it's sound like a screeming whistle and sounds like complete and utter shit. But for me it's still fun to make it crack and Pop and can sound good in certain situations. However if you can afford a real exhaust do one.
That's the thing, I can't afford a real exhaust Yeah I just want to see if it will make the sound more interesting, at the very least. Your comment about the exhaust note after 3.5K is concerning, though-- is it really that bad, or you just wish it was a little better?
