Can you describe what it sounds like, and how much interior resonance are you having (versus stock)

First of all, I have it installed w no tailpipe. Comes out right b4 the rear axle. Will be adding tailpipe soon. Sounds like a V8 !! Not very loud,a little moanong on low rpm side,but pretty quiet at 60-65 on highway. I'm sure that with a tailpipe it'll be perfect !!! I would also not hesitate to say I gained at LEAST 2 mpg's over stock supersix muffler...

putting a tail pipe will really quiet it down as well.
My cherrybomb turbo muffler was very loud untill the tailpipe was installed.

Does it go "BRRRRRRRRRRR", "BURPBURPBURP", or "MMMMMMMMM"?
