with the vehicle in neutral does it seem to rev freely? only take light throttle to rev up, or quite a bit? exhaust sound different than before? good throttle response only at low rpm?

In Neutral, it revs freely, needing only a light touch. Reving it high makes the engine loud and kinda cough/sputter/chug.

The exhaust does should different than before. More "swooshy".

Throttle response at low RPMs seems good, but not at the more highly depressed end of the throttle.
