That sounds Amazing. Thanks for the clip.
Any feedback on hp and torque gains? Do you notice the difference in power and throttle response?

I hate butt dynos but it feels like I gained more hp and tq. More so in the mid to top end. But again...that's just my butt dyno feeling. Gotta get it back on the dyno.

No valves. The way Tanabe made their mufflers makes it almost impossible to put worth while valves in. This is just to hold me over til I get the catback from Novel.And no cats at the moment.

Since your running no CAT, are you getting check engine light? Also, any issues with droning at cruising speed? Also, any notice of power from CAT delete?
I want to run without CAT but I wouldn't know how to switch off the CEL.

And it does drone. Its completely catless so there will be a drone. But to me it's a manageable drone. My ISF with PPE headers and ISS exhaust was insane. I had to yell at my passengers...lol
My GSF is nowhere near the level of drone my ISF had.
