Default American Thunders Installed with Video

Hey guys I finally got my new mufflers installed, fixed the rattle, and found time to shoot some video. I'm very happy with the mufflers themselves and I think this video does them justice pretty well. I took some footage from inside the car but I wasn't quite happy with it when I got home. I'll reshoot some later and get it up soon, I've just been getting questions on the new set-up and wanted to get some footage up asap. Thanks for looking and I welcome any comments/questions.

Nope, don't think so. There's definitely an ominous booming sound when I'm going at high speeds (about 70 mph and up) in 4th gear but I'm not sure it qualifies as drone. I can say its not annoying, but it definitely makes its presence known. I'll leave it up to you guys when I get some highway footage up

too bad at high rpms, it sounds totally different . I love my American Thunders but its just not a V8 noise you want it to be. But it still sounds good.

Also, when its cold...oh man, pops like no other. Keep it at low rpms, you will be fine.

off topic, how long did that shop take to install your duals when you converted?

lol yeah I try to make sure the passengers are the only part of the car popping or farting. And yeah I'll look out for you at the cruise, should be a lot of fun. Thanks to everyone for their input

My car was at the shop a while only because I dropped it off when there were a few cars already ahead of me and I didn't mind staying because my girlfriend at the time was going to meet me there soon. But when they did get to my car I think it took maybe a couple hours. By the way are you coming to the cruise too?
