any ideas? does it only sound nice because of the camera microphone?

anyone else done whatever it is he's done to it?

A microphone can make all the difference. Open exh usually means nothing in the pipe or muffler restricting air flow

Pretty sure he just cut out the round inner circle that you can see inside the end of the exhaust.

i'd think that would be pretty hard to do. isn't it a very long piece (the length of the sleeve?)

do you guys recommend doing this? or is it not worth it?

No, he means just the tip of the inner tube, so that it is flush with the inside of the outer can. Can be done easily with a dremel. Makes it just a little louder without doing anything to the inside.

Would you need to rejet after doing this?

No need to rejet. my guess is the further you cut, the throatier it will sound.

Are you happy with the result? How much did it change the exhaust tone?
