There you go, figured it out. It's actually pretty loud, video doesn't do it justice since you have no other sound to compare it to.
That sounds great! The 3.6L sounds decent stock, but that makes it even better! Saving a couple of dollars for this!

I just received and installed the Magnaflow rock crawler cat back and wow is it loud. Definitely very aggressive. It's louder than my WRX with its aftermarket 4" muffler.

Is it normal for there to be a slight paint burning smell after installing it? Guessing it's hugging up close to the frame and might be burning a bit of the coating.
I have the same exhaust. I put it on last week and I am wondering about swapping out to the aFe Mach Force-XP. The MF Cat Back is louder than I expected in the cabin from gears 3-5. Sound deep and throaty but the volume especially going up hill in lower gears is a challenge,

I was going to get a Flowmaster Outlaw cat back but I heard they were louder than the Magnaflows. Now I am thinking AFE or something else.

Any thoughts?

PS - I also smell the burning paint odor. That is the muffler breaking in.

I'll take some tomorrow, it seems to be the loudest in between 2.2k-3k RPM, so if you're not a fan of that, then it's not for you. I still don't know how I feel about it. Right now, I like the sound, but it's definitely loud (doesn't help that I have a soft top and sound enters from all over), louder than my WRX for sure, so don't know how I'll feel about it in a few months/years down the road once the appeal of sounding cool wears off a bit.

I'm keeping my OEM exhaust just in case.
I am in the same boat. It would cost the same to switch to a aFe Mach Force-XP cat back system as adding the MF rear axle back muffler to the setup; which I think you can do.
