How did you get around the cat/resonator? Did you change it to a high flow cat or straight pipe?

Straight pipe, I will try and post up a new video later today. I installed a short ram intake last weekend and it gave it a more throaty sound, I am also getting an aftermarket muffler installed in about 45 minutes.

I lost some low end torque when I took the resonator out and put the straight pipe in, but the intake gave me back my low end, so now it's pretty good to drive.

I'm still debatign a glass pack, depends how loud the car gets with an aftermarket muffler, intake and no resonator. If it's to loud, it's going to get a glass pack.

Ugh, I don't like it.

I never have been a fan of a muffler that makes a car sound cheap. I kinda feel bad and embarrassed for the driver a little.

Deep and throaty? Sure!

High and raspy? Nah, ill pass.

If you dig it though, enjoy!

I wasn't thrilled with the sound, but I've swapped out the stock muffler and put the short ram intake into it and it now has a deep throaty grumble. When it's idling it sounds like it's ready to eat a civic
