Its pretty loud, i have mines routed towards the drivers side like stock. i have a cat on it too, sometimes its so loud it gets irritating. duno i guess it all depends on what u like, the fools who made my exhaust screwed it up too so it may just be mine. Sometimes though when taht sucka gets nice and hot and im really playin around on the highways it sounds really cool in the higher rpms.

haha, dont even think about trying to creep up on anyone with a fireball, unless their deaf or have firearms going off inside of their ears. Funny thing is i usuall drown it out with my stereo, every once and again ill get a new passenger though who reminds me how loud it actually is .

wow, that's weird...my 5zigen aint that loud....i got a high-flow cat and 2.5" catback piping (non-mandrel bent so i guess it makes up for 2.25 mandrel bent somewhere). it sounds nice when i'm riding by the center divide on the freeway at 5k+ rpms...i can NEVER get over the feeling of stomping on the gas in 3rd gear onto a freeway onramp
