Added to list of future mods.
How is the tone/sound? I really don't like loud noises, especially on an Avalon.

It has a nice deep tone at idle but overall it's still pretty quiet. Definately worth the money, i've had the sound check guys at the track rate me at 68db which is well below the 98db sound limit

Nice I'm still waiting for mine to come in But it's nice to see I won't have to weld anything I'll probably warm up that hangar with a torch and bend it.
