exhaust's magnaflow custom tips. the noise is killing me and I only had it for a day, so I'm putting the resonator back first thing tomorrow morning to hopefully quiet down a bit. Thank God I still have my resonator in the garage!! At this point I don't give a damn about performance...lol Eventually gonna chip and pulley it anywayz.

It is much louder than jtC320's setup with the same muffler.

Hey, at least you've got a 32!...I'm stuck with an engine that nobody has been able to really figure out yet or get any significant power out of (and who knows if they ever will).

I know, I know, easy solution would be to trade for a pre-owned 32. I've already been there, done that and the one car I found that was close to what I would've wanted, we couldn't come to terms on monthly payments.

Anyway, all I can do is dream about having more power under the hood. You've already got a lot of power under the hood (with a lot of options for more later on). Step by step, your car will eventually be a monster!

Nice Frank! Hey Frank, can you post pic of the quad exhaust? Are you using one or two mufflers? And im still deciding wether to go with magnaflow or borla, which one is NOT giving sound like japanese cars?

I'm only running single muffler with custom piping. both magnaflow and borla will make the car sound like V8 muscle car. Taking off the resonator sounds great, but too loud in the cabin.
