Thanks man. I ended up just using the shims because the studs are too long on the PBMs to use my Rays lugs. Putting them back up for sale soon.

It probably is, HFC's aren't *that* quiet. I believe the only test pipe that silences that down is the ART pipe.

Your catback is more likely what's causing the cruising volume, usually the rear muffler handles that.

as i was about to drive out to work. i noticed there was bird doo doo on the roof. i sprayed it down with some clay lube and waited a couple of minutes to wipe it off, as to not scratch the paint.

Replaced the window switch finisher because it was annoying me how scratched up it had gotten by the previous owner. OCD at its finest. If anyone wants this non-cracked one, let me know. I hate to throw it away.

Install your stock cats, that will do the trick.

threw them away a while ago prior to my PCS. It sounds better today and nice during a normal cruise. Overall, Im happy with my purchase so far. The sound at cold start is super nice btw.
