It only lasted a few seconds and went away. If I can do it again, I would just do the axleback and keep the stock chevy x pipe.
I would hate to spend money on an NPP setup, then have to pull the fuse though. could very well be the AFM vavles causing some of your noise.

I had the actual valve plate fall off mine and get lodged in the exhaust. Submitted a warranty claim and never heard back. I’d avoid this exhaust.

I have noticed that their customer support has gone to crap since Holley took them over.

A very happy ending and I am fired up with my exhaust now!
Anyone have link to the Youtube video OP mentioned? That'll be a massive help. Any long term experience on the zip tie solution? Does it not melt?
