It's gunna sound nasty bro!
Can't wait to hear it.
I'm actually ordering mine probably tomorrow or Monday.
Going with the 40085.
Right now I've got LT's, custom ORY that I added cats and an FM merge connected to a POWERSTICK dumped.

It's just not the sound I want so I'm swapping the stick for an xr-1.

Gunna be so deep witht he FM merge and cats.

Keep us updated.
