I hate pulling into the parking garage, with the car at low RPM going up the ramp, and the sound echoing off all of the parking structure. Everyone who is within a 3 or 4 block radius can hear me climb all 7 stories to the top of the garage.

you can barely hear the axle back at all with stock resonators. its not loud or anoying at all. I had to remove the resonators to get some actual sound out of mine

The Comptechs are hardly noticeable. I'm not sure about what droning some of you are talking about. It wasn't much different from stock. At first I was thinking "I spent $500+ for this?!?!"
Then, I was inspired by a video clip that fsttyms1 posted a while back. I took off the larger resonator, and...oooo...nice sounds!

I'll be old and gray and still loving the growl of an engine and exhaust.

Speaking of the catback. Found a used CT on ebay for 300. Only one person bid on it and 4 more days left. Also, Used comptech headers for like 50 dollars. There's 8 more days on the headers...i'm pretty sure it'll go up. I call dibs...lol

I'll probably wait a few days to see how much it goes up on the bids. i'll probably get the DC sports...the CT one he had listed looks really old. Heres the link take a look for yourself... http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...RK%3AMEWA%3AIT
