After research went with Stage 1 exhaust

I went with the stage 1 cause most of the local exhaust shops in my area did't have either the Magnaflow or Dynomax. So i got the stage 1 to see how i liked that sound, not very noticable at all IMO!! Guy at one of the local shops swore to me that the 12' glass pack was the same as the Dynomax, but i did't wanna take the chance or rasp or rice sound. Like most here, I just want the G35 350Z sound, so i ordered the Dynomax WLK 24215 and from what i read here i should be happy with that sound?

I have stage one and love it. At first it wasn't very noticeable but I'm fairly certain that mine got louder over time. I think mine sounds really close to a G35/350 just not QUITE as loud. I would give it some time if I were you and if you still don't like it after a month or two, then swapping out the resonator might be a good idea. But honestly I feel like the more you mess with your exhaust the further and further away it gets from sounding like a G.

I have a Stage 3 with the RV6 V3 pipe and I have Rasp from about 3K to 4K!! Are you saying you do not have this?? Do you have any other mods and what engine/model do you have?

I get a little rasp when the car is cold. But I think it sounds sweet. Only really get rasp when I am at wot. My car is stick btw. I went from greddy to this setup and it is 1000 x's better. Oh yah, I also have type s exhaust. Don't know if that makes that big of a difference.

Ya I get very little at partial throttle, but get a tod at WOT in the range I described! I hate rasp so I just ordered another resonator and plan on swapping it out as soon as I get it. My ultimate plan is to get a new catback system.
