Default Put on Airaid Intake and Custom Magnaflow

Hey Everyone,

Yesterday I installed the Airaid intake. Today i went to a muffler shop i'm familiar with and put on a 12458 duel in duel out muffler with duel pipes running out the passenger side.

Here's my quick review:
Intake alone is loud. You feel some get up and go starting around 3K. When you get past 3K on the intake it's loud. The sound isn't as clean as say an I4 or I6 engine with intake but it does sound good, just too loud for me. And note I ride a Ducati with Termi pipes

Then today i put the exhaust and intake on. Now it's really loud. it's as if the exhaust made the intake more loud and visa versa.

I proceeded to take the intake off today and put the stocker back on and now the sound is nice. The magnaflow alone is quieter than the intake alone. There is a small small drone around 1500rpm when you are decelerating, otherwise I'm cool with it.

If anyone wants the airaid --pm me. Otherwise I need to find a place to dyno the combination..i'm willing to bet both intake and exhaust alone will yield 20whp and 20lb of torque.

Pics!
