Secondary Kitties + Resonator Delete :D

Well, I cut the resonator off about 3 weeks ago and it was a mellow improvement. Today I cut the secondary kitties off and man what a difference. It's exactly what I was looking for. Noise level inside the cab of the car is not much louder than stock, but noticeable. The outside level is a vast improvement. Sounds great. I'm a very happy camper.

Do you have any pictures of the replacement so I can get an idea of how it needs to be done?

It's a big improvement I got pulled over for speeding I think the cop just heard me zoom by. He told me I had a nice car and to slow down and let me off lol. People love the sound of my car. I don't really get to hear it though because I am always inside
