Talking NICE SOUND with new resonator

I hated the sound of my car after I replaced the Pettit high flow with a midpipe. The car was raspy, backfired a lot; just basically sounded terrible. I wanted my cat back, but with no air pump it wasn't a possibility.

So I decided to go the route I typically do with my decatted cars, install a resonator. But which one? I wanted stainless, with decent length, high flow, but could pass as a high flow cat to a cop of typical intelligence. My choice, a piece from kteller.com.

I decided to go with the compnay after a couple of my friends had good experiences. I was not disappointed. The quality is great, and so is the customer service. It quieted the car down considerably. I was expecting less because of it's small size. Spool time seems the same (I'm non-seq), but noise is greatly reduced, with all raspiness now gone. Don't get me wrong, it's still loud (Apexi duals), but the sound is nice!

3" in/out, 14" long Stainless $65

yeah, I'd say the reduction in flow is very minimal
