Default tsudo 4-2-1 header

Hello,
I just got a tsudo header installed and when i drove it, the car made a sound like metal is clinging.(or kinda like what a dirtbike sounds like). I also have magna flow exhaust and i got the resonator taken off. Do you think that would be the reason for the sound?

Usually headers+aftermrarket exhaust=crap sound for our cars. Choose one or the other for a good sound. Or put a big resonator on.

So you have the header, then stock s pipe, then the mid pipe you took the resonator off then stock axle back with a magnaflow?

The S pipe came with the headers, then I have the midpipe, which is stock because the person that did my exhaust only does axleback exhaust. and he took off the resonator, but I plan on putting it back on.

Just put on a bigger resonator. I don't remember what brands people recommend but I do know that usually a good resonator clears up the ricey-ness.

Instead of simply getting the resonator put back on, I would get all new piping from the S-Pipe back to match the OD of the new S-pipe and header. No reason to choke down the exhaust after the s-pipe. I do suggest getting a BIG resonator (or glass pack like cherry bomb if you don't have a lot of cash) and have that welded into the mid pipe.
