Default M&K Muffler w/ Cat Bypass Sound Clip

Installed the M&K a few weeks ago and loved the sound. In fact, I thought I was done. But after hearing some sound clips with the the cat bypass installed, I had to do the same. Hearing other people's clips helped me decide. So I thought I would post mine to help those on the fence about making the change (also, just because I love the sound and couldn't resist posting).

Why don't you rev it up so we can hear what it sounds like??

Engine was cold and I was in a bit of a hurry. I will post another clip when I get a chance and give it some good revs.

Yup.

Does yours still have all the white packing? I noticed a significant change in tone once all of it blew out on the highway.

Fred,

The packing issue I think was resolved a while ago. M&K made changes because some of the material was coming loose.

I will have to agree with cstreit. I have not noticed any change in sound yet.

I had some packing blow out of mine when I first installed it. With SSIs on my 81 SC, it is real loud. (single out). Do you think the loss of packing made it louder than normal?

Yes. It was noticeably milder with the packing.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to bash Ben or anything - I liked both sounds. It'd be worth serious $$ to me (however) to get the tone of the Fabspeed Cat & Muffler bypass by with 10+ db quieter volume.

The M&K also was lighter than the Bursch too, making it a good buy all around.
