did this earlier today and went for a drive. i definitely noticed some drone in higher gears under load at low speeds. doesn't really bother me as i had a loud race exhaust on a subaru a while back and this is still very tame compared to that.

i used black electrical tape over each end and then taped the wire to itself on the side. even after 2400 miles of driving (including heavy rain, mud, dirt etc) that area has stayed surprisingly clean so i'm not overly worried about it getting destroyed. i don't think i'll be switching it back anytime soon though, it sounds pretty good.

anyone think there's a bigger difference with the windows down? inside the cabin seemed negligible but driving with the windows down i can appreciate the dB bump a bit more.
