It's like that more or less anywhere, I think. The computer software is so sophisticated that if there's anything wrong, it'll tell you. Especially with the downstream O2 sensors. Here in BC they're dropping emissions testing all together, finally.

Got everything in place and no CEL for now. Definitely breathes better and has a nice, throaty rumble around town. At highway speed that low pitched rumble is more annoying and noticeable even over the wind whistling past the door weatherstripping. Fixing the weatherstripping is on my to-do list, so I'll probably yank the seat and lay some sound deadener under the carpet too. It's got a wee bit of burble and backrap on deceleration too, which is sweet.

Compared to the 2.5" pipe and 16" Magnaflow on the Bronco the sound is much lower.

Nice work.

Give the muffler a month or so to break in before making any final judgements. The generally mellow out quite a bit.
