you want fries with that?


- i run an axelback b/c i hate the damm noise, its deep, quiet, and looks nice. It would be louder if i installed the midpipe and removed the resonator, but with this serving as my DD it works well for me [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG] -

the 2.25" piping is supposed to make the sound of the muffler deeper and not so high pitched and ricey...i dunno... am i wrong ??

you can lose some low end grunt due to the loss of delta pressure (not backpressure)

Get the Thermal R&D rear section, give you the look, deep sporty sound, not too loud......but it cost like around $300, that's what I paid for.

When I installed my HP Racing muffler with the stock midpipe and resonator, I swear I could not hear anything. Quiet but it doesn't seem like a muffler was installed. I replaced the midpipe without the resonator and now it's sounds DEEP!!! But you do lose some low end power but increase on the high end
