I love the look but I'm sorry to say I'm not feelin' the sound.

I still think the best sounding exhaust is either the Greddy or Comptech b-pipe with stock mufflers.

Would love to hear this setup....

I didn't know the b-pipe made any real difference in sound. This would be great for me cause I like the stock look but just want a very slight increase in tone.

P.S. Your car is HOT rondy

thanks, I just went back to the muffler shop, and in all the sounds testing with and without the resonator, the guy missed a 1" weld. We felt the exhasut leak right away. So he welded it up and I actuallt felt a decent amount of power increase and the car is alot quiter at idle and at acceleration. Sounds alot more mature.

Great news. Post another clip soon. Your first clip sounded a little "weezy"

Honestly, its sounds so subdued compared to before, I don't even think you can hear it with the camera clip. Just wait until the next meet, and I'll have someone record it driving by. I like it, and I can't believe how much torque was lost with that exhasut leak, unreal how the car pulls now.
Sounds just right too, almost afraid to get the CAI in place of my ice box, might drown out the sound of the exhasut.

It wouldn't really drown it out, it'll just add a nice deep tone to it at WOT. I <3 my AEM CAI!
