Pipes in. H pipe no mufflers. Sounds remarkably tame. Unless I really step on it then it’s loud but just cruising around it’s really quite. I am just realizing that one pipe is longer than the other and that’s gonna bug me.

I asked my exhaust guy the same thing. He said as long as there’s an inch between them their fine. What are your thoughts on a safe clearance?
