I notice that you have a Ztec, so I am not sure exactly how it would sound, but I have a Flowmaster 40 series with the stock resonator. Sounds good to me.
Yes i do have a Ztec but i am always looking for a V6 so i like would like to be prepared to do mods right away when i buy a V6. Plus i am always looking for better exhaust setups for my Ztec.

As for the Ztec's, I really liked the way that ZtecRacing (Joe) has his setup. Let me find the link where he explains it a little.... [waiting on EDIT by mister slowpoke!  ]
... Ok! Mr. Slowpoke is back and here is the link... What Causes Rasp?
Basically, he has a dual exahust (dual tips) on his Ztec. He cut out the resonator and put a Dynomax Ultra-Flow muffler in place of it.

well you are kind of right on what I have for a setup 
I ndid tell exactly what I had in that thread you speak of too
2.5" pipe from flange to a Dynomax UltraFlow Muffler where the stock res goes with a 2.5" pipe coming out of it splitting to 2 2.25" straight pipes with 3" magnaflow tips.
2003 Subaru WRX some mods
Even if you don't have the answer, you certainly have to admire the problem.

Hey! Like I said, "Basically" and at least I got that right. Geesh! Try to throw someone a bone and they just throw it back at you and smack you in the head with it.
