Got the exhaust installed. It was so simple...two bolts and two stud on the rubber bushing for each side. As for the sound, I love it. From the outside, it has a deep growl. From the inside, there is a slight droning but what do you expect from an after market exhaust...peace and quiet. I tried doing a sound clip from inside the cabin but my iPhone and Canon 5D camera couldn't pick up the exhaust sound. Was this a great buy...definitely.
I will try to add a sound clip from outside later.

Did you use a ramp to install them? If so, what kind?
Thanks

My buddy own a shop and we used his lifter. I would imagine it be a little difficult with a ramp since there is some push/pull force to pull the stud off the rubber bushing. It might be a little had to do that on your back. It took him about 20 mins to do install both.

Appreciate it Nat. I will just go to a muffler shop and have them put on. I'll let you know how it goes.....

Joe, got mine installed last week and it sounds great. Did you have the tune the ls after the install? Seems to be a lil sluggish. Should I disconnect the battery for awhile to have the ECU relearn my driving habits with the exhaust?

Good question OSU! Got mine installed last week and it great to have my car sound like a 'V8' now. GRRRRRRRR.... My baby is a little sluggish as well. Curious to see what Joe has to say.

Hey Guys...
Glad to hear you're enjoying them..!!!
I haven't heard of the LS feeling "sluggish" after installing an axle back exhaust...
You can try resetting the ecu, make sure your running 91 Oct fuel (or better) & try running it with the "Power Button" ON..
It's also a great time to make sure you have a CLEAN pair of oem engine air filters....
Thank You
Joe Z
