Sounds great! I wonder what a Coffin muffler might sound like with 2 smaller dumps. I would think more pops. I just went to a Remus Powersound, and with the 2 bigger (102mm) dumps, I seem to have lost pops. Burbles nicely, but no "backfire-like" pops that I got with the stock muffler and only a resonator delete. Hmmm....

We, initially, were looking to keep the two tips, but they didn't have any that would fit the cut out of the bumper...a lot of larger diameters though. I think if the tip were about 3/4" to 1" larger it would fit even better, but we love it!

Next is the resonator delete...I have one on my R60 and I can't get enough of it!
