Default resonators

h.ah.ha.ha........tht's a good one, bro.......

i'm thinking of taking both resonators out, run a straight pipe, 2 1/4 all the way back to the mufflers. also, i'm considering to run
a 2 1/2 inch pipe after the 1st caty.....what do you think?

hope the car wont be too loud..........

nah, it won't be too loud......well it depends on you mufflers also. if you are running stocks don't worry about it but if you have aftermarket mufflers then you have to deal with what you have. like system is all new except the cats, i have all new piping going to my magnaflows. and it sounds perfect to me, everyone i know likes it and it doesn't sound ricey at all. what you plan on doing sounds good, but you might want to consider some high flow cats if you want a little more out of your exhaust.......

i think we only have two, haven't had a chance to lift the car. but magnaflow does make a high flow cat that runs about $89. not sure if it would fit our cars but i'm sure something can be done....
