Also, allow a break in period for at least 500 miles for the exhaust to settle down.
No disrespect to your door seal theory, but my car has no door seal problem. The car is whisper quiet when going down the street at 100mph. Rolling the windows down only makes the muffler slightly louder to the driver. When you crank it up in your garage it sounds like a 300zx that lost a muffler. If it was a more refined, mechanical sound i would be pleased, but its a raspy, loud, drone. This is a fairly expensive car and needs a more refined sound that a fancy car demands. Just my opinion.

I will sell the magnaflow and lead-in pipe with factory tips all complete as a package as soon as my Borla system comes in. Anyone interested can shoot me an offer.
