Default Granatelli Exhaust

OK, so I got my Granatelli exhaust system installed Saturday morning. Was going to go woth Borla Stingers, but thought I'd try this system out instead, after following the threads about the CF Forum member GP.
The parts were wll packaged, and the kit was very complete - my muffler guy had very little trouble putting it all together and lining up the tips, etc. It was a lot harder to get the old system off in 1 piece, and it took more time than installing the new system.
Finished product looks real good, and sounds pretty much like my bud's Stingers, except I have zero drone/resonance, and no deceleration popping at all. Tried it at all speeds, top up, top down, etc, no drone at all! Nice mellow rumble at idle, good sound while on the gas easily, and lots of noise the way I like it with the hammer down.
I can't see any dis-advantage to this system, fit, finish, sound wise, etc, and the CF Forum GP price made it even better yet.
Ryan at Granatelli gave me good service with my order too, and was very helpful.
I took a few pics of the install, but am having trouble trying to post them.
Just my 2 cents......
