    Thumbs up Final update

    After a 4 hour trek to Iowa, I have decided to give the tail pipe fix a try. I thought I would be able to deal with the exhaust note now especially after it had mellowed little, but after 2 hours of interstate wind noise and various boy band pop hits (I was taking my daughter home) I was looking foward to the piece and quiet of a 55mph zone only to be greeted by my PV muffler.
    I had the stock tip replaced today with a 2" tail pipe. Nothing fancy. The difference it made was nothing short of REMARKABLE!. The exhast note is low and throaty but the brash, resonation is gone. This is the sound I have been hoping for. The best way to describe it is the exhaust note is now in the background were it belongs. Anyone looking to reduce some decibles without loosing the sound, I recommend this fix.
    $10.00 for parts and $20.00 for labor.
