LX owners with resonator removed

I was wondering how much louder the interior noise is with this removed? I have the flowmaster axle back muffler (the one that bolts to the resonator).

my friend told me about this today. its the cheap man's way of sounding fast without dishing out 200 something for an intake. just do it for the time being and while youre saving up money!

No, I'm talking about the EXHAUST, not the intake.

By midpipe, you mean the pipe that runs from the header to the axleback pipe, right? If so, how much was the ractive pipe?

Yes it goes from the cat to the axel back. I paid 80 bucks very lightly used. But ya you can get em any where and they have less restrictive muffler on them.
