No, not really. Will run rich, not make any power, be annoyingly loud when you try to talk to anybody in it, get TOO MUCH of the wrong attention, and sound absolutely bad @ss when you get on it. I am running open headers now, have for just over two weeks, and can't get in for my true duals until August.
