The sound has not been altered from the stock exhaust. It just amplified it! :O

He paid someone $20 for the washer install, then 3 dyno runs typically run around $50. I can do maths. And duh, it would be a waste of $50.

Who knows? :- )
Maybe someone who has an access to a dyno can do this before installing his/her new CBE.
That be great

Its the same as drilling holes in your muffler.
Actually coming from a 375/430 Subaru legacy, there is a similar thread on the legacy forum on this. Called the zoghaust mod. Strictly dor the sound and I did it for my friend just fir kicks,.. But definitely not the way to go IMO,..
