Loud and useless. Does nothing for power and only makes the vehicle sound obnoxious.

If you're expecting an improvement in performance, consider this: OEM exhaust has less than .5psi back pressure, including the converter. Not much room for improvement there If you're looking for obnoxious noise, blazen red nailed it.
