I didnt know youve got to run an exhaust in, I take it you've got to let the gasket sealers harden.

Could take much longer than 200 miles for that to happen took my magnex nearly 6 months till it started getting real deep, just over time the bafflers in the boxes break down and make it noiser or deeper. Just a wait and see kinda thing?

you'll also notice it gettin noticably louder as it gets warmer, may sound quiet on start up but once u been driving it for a while will sound louder too Also depends on how often u drive it too
