Is it annoying loud or good loud cause its already pretty loud. how bout the lable on the side. how hard where the dash lights to do and where did you get those sweet a** mirrors.
It gets a little louder, nothing that I cant get used to. I might wear earplugs this year to see if I like that better. I left the label in place and took out the lower section of the pipe. Set up your marks for the length you want to cut. I drilled the rivets, then used a grinder to cut the can weld at the lower section. Make sure not to cut into the inlet piece when you do this. I then pulled the inlet tube and the main can apart (very difficult, had to twist can while pulling it apart) Then I removed the inner perforated tube and marked it with a marker for cut down then grinded the welds on the inlet tube.
I couldnt exactly find the thread I used to make mine but this one will give you some idea

Cut the inlet down and weld the inlet back to the perforated section. Cut the packing down and reinstall the inner tube with packing around it. It is very difficult to get it back together, you may need another person to help. Reinstall the band with aluminum rivets and enjoy.
The dash lights were a little difficult, just had to take your time. I had a crappy soldering gun at the time. Now I have a soldering iron, which would have worked better. I bought a LED kit off ebay for the lights and also got the mirrors off ebay.
