Christmas came early

[Coors]

Just picked up the 6 T from the exhaust shop.

I went with 2.5" straight pipe to two magnaflow 5X8 ovals. No center muffler and decided to keep the tips hidden (downturns).

So, overall I'm happy. It may be a little loud for me, but I'll see what happens after a few hundred miles.

Idle is nasty! No drone in low rpms and its quite sutle when crusing on the highway.

Is it possible that I could lose power from opening up the exhaust?
For some reason it just doesn't seem to pull as hard as before. I think?Maybe, I am just focusing my attention on the new sweet exhaust note.

I'm currently running GIAC, piggies, and 2.5" cat back.
Before, I had GIAC, piggies, and stock cat back.

I'll post some pics and video tomorrow

What are your thoughts on opening up the exhaust and lose of power.
Mutually exclusive events? Hope so!

Being the anal retentive person that I am; I switched to stock mode before letting go of the car to the exhaust shop. So, I drove around all last night w/ the car in stock mode. Honestly, I was pretty happy with it then.

However, when I woke up this morning the first thing that I did was plug in the flashloader and what do you know, son-of-a-bitch, it was in stock mode the whole time.

Needless to say, I took a mental health day from work today and am loving the sh%t out of this.
