I love mine, but had to Dynamat the whole inside to get the wife to ride again. The sound does help to keep me from hearing the lawn-mower sounding four-banger in the lane next to me

So, what are muffler eliminators? Are they what we use to call straight pipes?

I took mine off. They sounded OK inside the car but outside I did not like them at all. I have a pair of Turbo mufflers now from Mid America that have a nice deep rumble.
