Check out the pics. Please get a decent muffler. Don't get some ricer piece of crap, or it will sound like crap.

I did have no res, but I got pulled over too much for noise pollution. The thing I love about this set-up is that people tend to think I drive a v-6. It is however a little raspy on first startup.

Mine is way too quiet for my taste. Maybe that's because I can still hear my old '86 Mustang with 2.5" exhaust and 2 chamber Flowmasters droning in my head. The stock manifold/cat design in these cars are crap IMO. A header will net some decent gains paired up w/ a full exhaust and intake. '96 Contour - Zetec/MTX 130+k mi.
