Won't take long, wait untill you give it full throttle and then the noise really starts. I had mine plumbed with 2.5" all the way back with no muffler, that only lasted a day. I got some nasty looks from the state trooper trying to order lunch behind me in the Wendy's drive through And the fact that I was told that I would be given a ticket for the loud exhaust if I brought the car back into town without a muffler by another cop.
