I have a pacesetter header, stock cat, + apexi dual N1 catback. That alone is annoyingly loud. I can't imagine what it would be like with just the header.

now there was a time when i ran with my header and one presilencer (Rotary Engineering) for a few weeks as i decided what i wanted to do with my exhaust, it was loud. i remember catching the attention of a motorcycler rider one night going up the Bronx River Parkway at full throttle ... mmmm. i think even in my old age now, i could probably live with that as a weekend cruiser - but unlike New York, it just probably wouldn't fly very well with the nosy ****** down here in Florida. god, i can't wait to move back home ...
Please do move back home. New York ****** like you think you own the roads in Florida.
