Buying and selling belongs in the marketplace. Please do not post WTB or FS in the main forums.

Ok guys, I have another question.. Are you sure it will not hurt my RCF if I delete the resonator? I have been reading articles about it.. They seem to have mixed reviews.. Some say yes it will affect the performance of the car.. Others say it will just make the car louder. I don't want to do anything that is going to mess up the car. Advice please...........

Resonator's job is only to contain some frequencies that cause resonance. Nothing more. There is no sensor attached to it so it cannot mess up anything in the A/F ratios etc. There is no power gain from resonator delete since the bottlenecks are in the piping, cats and mufflers. It only allows certain frequencies to be channeled through, which results in louder noise at idle and low rpms. That is pretty much it.

Tanabe, probably. Check with Josh at Meraki.

Tanabe are the best for axle back in quality... usually around $700. not to come off harsh, but why buy an RCF for decent money and then need to cheap out on the parts you're putting on it? A full Invidia exhaust can be had for under a grand delivered, and the APEXi midpipe is around $900... The stock exhaust isn't broken, just save up til you have $$ for a real exhaust to put on a really nice car.

I agreed, better to do it once and do it right.
