Glad you like them man. They are a nice muffler for cabin peace aren't they? Mine were originally installed upside down also.

^ This is true, but I would have done the same thing as Punisher. Just change out the mufflers. At least this way, you can get some money out of the old mufflers if you wanted to.

Peaceful yet loud outside and even louder when you put the pedal down.

They will break in after a couple thousand ( I say mine were about 6,000 miles until fully burned through ) but the interior noise will not increase a whole lot at all.

Yep, there's a lot to be said for that angle as well!
