Smile Aero Turbine Installed

I installed the aero turbine muffler yesterday (cat left on). Just thought I let you all know what I think since there are not many who have this muffler. I got the 3535 muffler which is 3.5 inlet/outlet. At idle, you can't even tell it's there, but when you get on it, it throws out a tone that's easy on the ears. Not too loud, but just enough rumble. Zero drone at all RPM's, a big bonus. I can tell the engine breathes much easier by better throttle response. As far as MPG, I don't believe the claim of increasing by 4 mpg, which it stated on the box. Also I am a little disappointed because I was hoping for more turbo whistle. I think a person could hear a difference at idle if the engine wasn't sooo loud (not complaining). I got the muffler for 186 dollars shipped. Overall, I give it an 8. If you want a loud exhaust, then this isn't for you. BUt if you want something with a low toned sound, then this will work. I know, I know, I should of straight piped! WE live and learn.
