Heres my vid with atlp..took me about 4.5 - 5 hours diy HFPC over the weekend.. I drop the F bomb at least 50 times while installing it
but pretty happy with the result..

same here i tink his base exhause is non resonated because you hear the rasp but it actually sounds good and this was the setup up I was going for. I was looking for more of an exotic sound I think I would like to hear a setup with the resonated version if not then I might switch to either the true dual exhaust instead of the atlp base since im looking for that exotic sound.I feel that the resonated version might give this setup that exotic sound im looking for but yours almost close to a m3

can you make some drive by vids including a little WOT and cruising because your setup is really helping me to decide before i order an exhaust system. As i have the v3 rv6 as well but arghh that little rasp hurts as I hear it now on my car lol.

I have the unresonated version but welded 2.5 Aero resonator. If you dont have a resonator it will rasp with this setup, If you dont want any rasp at all probably go with the 18in or 22in Magnaflow resonator.
I will post some vids on the weekend check my youtube channel, I dont really want to jack this thread.![Chuckle](https://acurazine.com/forums/images/smilies/chuckle.gif)

@04TL4P3: Will you post up a sound clip/vid?
This is not good news; I thought the HFPCs did not have a rasp problem at all. I guess the only cure is to install a HFC or an additional resonator after the jpipe...damn. I was going to purchase those HFPCs.

Aaron (Sharky) beat me to it....
Mid muffler is your problem....also the sound does seem to "tone down" after carbon deposit....just FYI

^what Anil (swoosh) said.
you're gonna want to keep your mid muffler on (square muffler) and take out the stock resonator and replace with something larger to muffle the sound.

I can't decide if I want to go PCDs & HFC after the jpipe or HFPCs and jpipe (no 3rd cat). I know these J series motors suffer from heat soak which pulls timing and decreases power. I don't want any rasp and I want to run some kind of cat for emissions and odor purposes...
Option 1:
HFPCs (ceramic coated) -$555
Jpipe (no 3rd cat) -$409
stock CBE
~$964
Pros: solid gains, no rasp
Cons: risk of heatsoak from keeping cats inside engine bay
Option 2:
PCDs (ceramic coated) -$355
Jpipe (no 3rd cat) -$409
metal catalyst HFC (welded in after Jpipe) ~$100(???)
stock CBE (after HFC)
~$864(???)
Pros: most power, reduced engine bay heat
Cons: possible rasp, slower warmup in winter, added expense from welding in HFC
Any suggestions?

ok heres a sound clip hope it works...
http://youtu.be/s2VKuUD5uN0
btw Im planning on installing the atlp base soon and adding on the vibrant ultra quiet resonator...should that do the trick or do i need a second resonator?

If is not to much to ask can you do a cabin video while driving at normal speed.
Thanks

FYI Vibrant resonator on atlp + v3 jpipe = silence.
I've rode around for a while with that setup and wasn't a big fan of it.

The difference in power is like 3-5 horses between the 2....what you might wanna think is whats allowed in your state....
If you live in Cali then forget PCD's or any other state that does a sniff test and a visual inspection.....
If you state does only a safety and OBDII port check (plug the computer in for codes) then get the PCD's and call it a day....
and why are you welding on a 3rd cat ?

^^^ in that case keep the HFC's and dont worry about the 3rd cat, it does nothing ![2 Cents](https://acurazine.com/forums/images/smilies/2cents.gif)
HFC --> Jpipe (which deletes the 3rd cat) --> Catback Exhaust

+1 and if you're worried about heat soak try to get an outer ceramic coating on the HFPCs; it should keep a lot of heat in the pipes and keep engine bay temps down.
Thank you for being environmental friendly! I myself am getting HFPCs and retaining my 3rd cat (it has a low cell count compared to other cats, but at least it HAS cells in there! Plus the gains from deleting the 3rd cat is very minimal. 1hp and maybe a very very slight increase in mpg iirc.

what is your setup anyway?
HFPC->V3 J pipe->dynomax resonator and mid miffler delete?
do you have rasp only when revving, or do you still have it under load (driving) as well?
