It's loud but I think I may have been thinking it would be crazy loud after reading all the posts about it. And it may be a little more quiet since it is a coop! Lovin it though!!

Haha, I have the silencer out at the moment. I haven't really gotten on the throttle yet so couldn't say I've noticed any gains. Have you noticed any gains?
 
I felt a power loss with the silencer on at high rpms.
A hesitant feeling in the engine, like it's trying to breath through a straw
 
think drilling a few holes in the silencer pipe would allow it to breath? i do agree with you. does erz take returns on such items?

One of my Tanabe Springs had a couple of chips on it due to it being shipped 3 times across the country. Lol. I painted up the chipped area with a few coats of the red caliper paint that's sitting in the garage. The spring is orange and I didn't really want to go to an auto store to buy and waste money on touch paint just to paint-match the spring.
 
Here are a couple of pics. These touch-up probably won't be seen when installed. That is the rear spring btw.

^^^^Feel your pain...Quebec roads are the same. At least you don't have to worry about an overpass falling on top you.

Yes, I am in the north, we just got the first half cloverleaf in the area.... opened this past summer. No other overpasses within many hundreds of kilometers. It's been close to / above freezing the last few days, except for today. Wet slop spraying everywhere.
 
Oh ...I didn't realize that there were not many over passes where you are. I was referring to Quebec's crumbling infrastructure. There was an overpass that suddenly collapsed one day without warning. Every time I'm stuck in traffic under one I start to check all the damage and cracks and get nervous.:ohnoes:

I'll try and get a video up. It's pretty loud at first. I've had it in for about a week now and it seems to have gotten a bit quieter. I run it without the silencer, and it sounds Great. I'm definitely happy with it and would recommend it!
I'll try and get a video up soon. iPhone 5 just won't do it justice!
Worth the 300 though

I installed these yesterday since the brake light filament broke on one of my bulbs:
