Default Does my mangflow catback need to break in?

I just installed my magna flow cat back and it is pretty quiet. Really not much louder than the stock cat back. Does it need to be break in. Or is it always gonna be that quiet. I hopeing it gets louder down the road.

Yeah, it'll get quite a bit louder, just give it a few hundred miles.

That's what I was going to suggest. Just get the long tubes and you'll never worry about being quiet

If you notice after a while of running it new you can smell the material inside burning off after you park the car. I've had mine almost 2 yrs. and the biggest difference was in the first 2 months. It doesn't get that much louder though.
