Not that anyone cares, but.... Had my resonator taken out today. Called all around town and got $40-50 estimates from everyone, local, national, whatever. Got it done at Midas for $40 even, and it sounds GREAT! Once it warms up... it is EXTREMELY raspy/ricey until then, it sounds much like my neighbors Ferrari. (Well, not QUITE that nice, but close) Now all I have to do is go blow the doors off those ricers in their 112 hp civics over by the mall... Stabler-- I still wanna check that Bassani and compare. I figured someone had to post before they shut this damn thing down for being too lame.

So it sounds pretty good once it warms up. I've been thinking about doing this, but really haven't heard the exhaust sound yet. Should meet someday while cruzing ft.wayne.

I had mine taken out and love it. It does sound raspy (ricey) when it's cold, but when she warms up she sounds BEAUTIFUL. If you haven't done an intake mod yet you should it sounds even better. You can actually hear your exhaust at idle now!
