Overall, momma likes it(quite) won't wake the kids up when I leave for work in mornings. And I like it too. Turbos are a heck of a lot louder now. The MR400 sounded good but just drownded them out badly.
I had the same problem with the muffler not being perfectly round. Took a lot of work to get everything to fit. Glad you got it installed. I still love mine. Definitely quieter but still loud enough.

I actually had my pictures still.

Ya, unfortunately mine looks NOTHING like yours. Damn I bet your is perfect for controlled noise factor. Mine has probably 1/5 to 1/4 the cups yours does and ALL face the same way. At first it seemed better but now it seems as if its just as loud as the MR400. VERY disappointed to say the least!!!

The one on my truck is like you describe. The pictured one is the one that went on my dads 5.0 truck.

I've had this system with the mr400 muffler for about a year. Today i installed a magnaflow 12773 in its place. Much more mellow and very deep sounding at idle.. the original muffler was getting to be a little much at times. Very pleased so far with the new setup.
