if i don't use my stock tip- i am still going to keep it. i am going to have them duplicate the exhaust that's on the car from the 4 bolt flange in front of the resonator to the back. that way i can easily go back to stock if i ever wanted to for some reason. i don't want the stock exhaust all hacked/welded to get rid of the resonator and swap mufflers.

i like those ebay tips. by the looks of things i wouldn't be able to use both since the pair would be too big for the opening in the bumper.

Anyone know a "normal" muffler shop in Long Island???

I've called a bunch of monro mufflers and went to a few shops in my town they all seem to not want to take out my resonator. They tell me they don't do that and say I won't be able to pass inspection and get false codes, I know its BS! I know plenty of people who have done the resonator delete. Long Island, Queens members where did you guys go to have it done??? Please let me know such a simple mod is taking forever because shops around me are retarded.

It doesn't compare at all.
4cyl forced induction engine vs a V8.

What you defined as your needs is directly in line with what we offer.
A deeper note, but not overly loud or instrusive.
