Any Thermal R&D exhaust system frequencies that vibrate the interior parts of the ST?

Got the Thermal exhaust on - thanks @ron@whooshmotorsports - I absolutely love it. Even my wife made a comment of how much she likes the sound which I will chalk up as a win!

I’ve put about 150 miles on it so far and no vibrations or drone at all

I'm around 200 miles since install on Thursday and have had no drone at all. I've had it cruising at around 90 with the Fiancé on board and us talking with no issues and no complaining about anything which she's sensitive to that kind of stuff. It's made a massive difference in my happiness with the vehicle as well. Plus between it and the turbosmart BOV in sport mode it encourages you to get on it more....for happiness sake.

Looks good, I'm loving the sound also. I'm kinda wishing I went with the black tips.

Kit is absolutely fantastic. Loving the look and loving the sound at WOT. I also love that it doesn't sound like a diesel truck at idle like some of these exhausts.

Let me give Ron a huge shout out, too. T R&D forgot to include the tips in my exhaust. I went to Ron once the installer realized that. Not only did Ron immediately email T R&D, but T R&D then overnighted the tips and I had them by 10am the next morning (California to NJ).

Fantastic customer service and a fantastic product.

How is everyone's fitting on the driver side near the differential?

Yeah I suppose I should have added some clarification there. Here's a few pictures to better show my fitment. Just trying to gauge if I need to attempt to adjust fitment even more.

Yours looks closer than mine at that angle for sure. I would adjust it a little bit to prevent the slightest sag later on and then rattles off the diff

that is going to hit 100%, At least double that space IMO. can you not adjust the pipe to come out further? I'd bet you have another 3/4 in that slip joint that could come forward more.
