Default exhaust systems usually take a couple thousand miles to settle. Before the exhaust note stays at

one tone. Stratmosphere doesn't have any millteks in stock right now, pete is expecting them wednesday or thursday. so I gotta wait =oP

Default Yeah I knew about the settling of the note but have not..

heard how long it may take, I may call Pete and see what he thinks. I tossed around the idea for long enough and finally chose Milltek and can't wait to put it on and fire it up Wednesday.

Default I actually couldn't tell you...

There's been very little change in sound from day one until the last time I drove it... probably 700 miles? It may break in eventually, but there hasn't been a really huge change in tone.

Default Yeah, they will. In fact, for me it was one gigungous and awkward box. :)

But it fit.
