SPD Equal Length Resonator Delete (Gen3-like trombone) for Gen2s

:::::UPDATE:::::
I've updated my previous post with this as well to avoid confusion.


This morning I had an epiphany....
I loosened all the claps including the connections at the downpipes. After tender moments and whispering sweet nothings to it, I was able to get all the hangers aligned and installed.
One thing that also bothered me...
Last night I went to double check all the clamps after a full heat cycle and I noticed how close the muffler was to the drive shaft. I have a balance weight on mine near the muffler and it had actually made contact with the muffler.

Attached are some updated photos.

I don't know how to feel yet. I have the SPD turbo adapters and downpipes with factory muffler. Its definitely louder, I wish it either had a deeper tone or sounded like a super car. it's very close to either at this point in my opinion.

Same. I just installed today and not concrete on how i feel. It sounds better, especially low RPM, but definitely got louder. Im going to let it break in and build up some carbon before i make my mind up. Im very picky and wife may not like it.
I did test cruising speeds 60-85 and its not loud and i have no issues with that.

Install was about an hour and not too bad. I am not a mechanic but I am a generally handy person. I have previously installed my SPD turbo adapters and downpipes.

Does it sound like a gen 3 or is it just louder

I haven’t heard a gen3 but it def evens out the tone. I love it. It sounds a bit more exotic in a way.
I’ve been trying to get some sound clips but none are worthy.

Nope. OEM downpipes and Borla Atak exhaust.

Nothing driving? Even just leaving your phone at the end of the drive and pulling out and away?

I tried but the didn’t do it justice so I ordered a new GoPro 10.
