Question About Exhaust Brake Sound After Changing Exhaust

I put the H&S downloader on my truck as well as a Flo Pro downpipe and delete pipe. I like the sound of the exhaust with just the stock muffler in place but the exhaust brake sounds, well, sick. Is that normal?

Okay. The sound is growing on me. Mostly I just wanted to make sure that was normal and that I didn't somehow mess something up.

By the way, in the Mild setting my truck will break those big 35's loose on dry pavement pretty easily. I haven't even tried Wild or Hot yet. I'm a little afraid of what they'd do to my transmission.

Huh that's nothin... on mild all I have to do is take my foot off the brake at idle and all 4 are spinning....... The freezing rain and 12 inches of snow have made things a little slippery, I'm even running with no exhaust brake after getting a little loose with it on yesterday.

We generally don't have that problem here. It's 84 degrees today.

Yeah I only keep my H&S on the mild 25hp setting, can spin the 4500 dually 19.5 tires with a 4.44 rear end pretty easily too.
