its a good sound under full throttle. under normal driving you wont hear any thing and its not anoying. it is very easy to remove, so if you decide to put it back on (out of all the members (which is ALOT) who have done this mod, only 1 wanted it back on) its just as easy to put back on.
just do it you will like it

umm...from the looks of your signature you have a CAI...which means you don't have an intake resonator...you referring to the exhaust resonator???

ahhhhh good catch jeff!
if your thinking of doing that with factory exhaust you wont gain much in sound, just a little deaper. wait till you get the comptech exhaust to see if you want more sound. here is my comptec exhaust with out resonators, and with out the intake resonator(wich is close to having a cai for sound)

Awesome videos kris...too bad youy hit the rev limiter going from 2nd to 3rd gear!!! No worries man, you're still a sick driver!!! I've done that before...it's embarassing when you sit behind the wheel of what someone thinks is a fast car, and then you make an ass of yourself by bouncing off the rev limiter!!!

Oh well, can never be perfect!
