Adding my FI exhaust. I probably would have been happier with something a little quieter in the cabin for a daily driver.

I dont think the 18" resonators are not too loud at all. They sound smooth and mellow at idle and when cruising and aggresive when you get on it, just like it should be.

FI exhaust is loud but it really depends on what speed you cruise at on the highway,if I go 70-75 yeah it's loud and over time would probably give me a headache but I cruise @80 so it is very quiet not much louder than stock.

So I guess it has allot to do with driving style.

Yeah definitely. In VA 80 is reckless, though, so I always had to keep it in the drone zone on the highway. I loved the sound, though.

In Atlanta 80mph is the norm any slower you really need to be in the right lane.

Installing the touring pedals in the manner I did. I wound up paying several hundred dollars to fix my mistakes.
