Well... now I got a spare 18" resonator... to temporarily shut up car to prevent cops from bothering me, I had OEM premuff put back in. Gonna try putting in a magnaflow resonator now. Question is, 18" or 22". I'll decide probably on 22" first. However, there are 2 kinds... 4" diameter and 6" diameter. Which ones u guys use and do u know which one bigman used? Thanks.

You will sound like a loud civic. Trust me, i was the 1st with the Magnaflow setup and have tried every setup with and without resonators.

Could you please explain? I thought that if you add a 22" resonator, it will help to quiet down the droning (which is what I want), making the exhaust sound closer to stock?
