Default Exhaust question

my setup consist of megan headers..megans drift spec catback..along with the downpipe it way too loud for me so i been riding with the silencer in which takes away most of the sound..

what i was thinking since right now i dont want to cut of the megans midpipe to put a cat in there i was thinking will it souns any different if i put back the stock midpipe leaving with the axle back......downpipe and header..

what do you gies think it free why not try it but just curious if anyone is runnig this setup now with the stock midpipe

get rid of the aftermarket header. problem solved.

drift spec exhaust is loud to begin with.

i had the megan midpipe, drift spec exhaust, and DC header. i got rid of the exhaust and went with greddy evo 2, then I had a shop weld two big resonators on it. it's still loud but i can deal with it now that i don't daily drive it.

with stock midpipe it is gonna still be loud and sound bad,weekwacker on crack sound.......two options,dump the header for the stock one or get resonators installed......honestly those are the two options........it has been asked a 1000 times and still the same results......resonator or lose the header.......

the stock resonator and the one on the megan pipe are junk and not designed to cut sound out when a header is installed.......

so its not worth putting the stock midpipe back right..i just though since it had the cat on it it would make it little quite..cause i was goona get a hi-flow cat but some say it wont really help i would need to get bigger and better resnators or ditch the header which i do like feel little bit of boost in the midrange power.......
