[spool twice]

I'm going to pull the trigger and have mine removed and use those resonators in place, there is room for tonal improvements with mine since I still have all four cats intact currently, its about as good as it will get being legally compliant + having equal-length rear seciton + having an OE muffler. Listening to my exhaust and another members equal-length + OE muffler system and he has catless downpipes, his simply screams and howls up top even with this H-pipe design vs my chambered x-pipe.

ntg44, have you noticed a change in rasp after a few hundred miles? Mine no longer rasp, just the usual upshift "fart" if I catch it at a certain rpm range when the exhaust valves do their thing. I didn't think it would change, but I guess coating the interior exhaust pipes with soot after a few hundred miles did it's thing in a good way.
