if you're ever having a bad day, do this.
1. make sure you are at 3-4 RPM in 4th gear.
2. downshift to 3rd.
results:
this downshift seems to be the real sweet spot for amazing and guttural sounds. its even better if you are in a tunnel or have objects on both sides to amplify the sound.
guaranteed to put a smile on your face nearly every time.

Thats a great down shift hehe also going about 75-80 in 5th gear (not sure rpm) and downshift into 4th and you get what sounds like a large caliber rifle going off ! Also not sure if its only on the new MCT trans but if your in manual going 60 and have it in 7th gear hold the downshift paddle/knob down and itll downshift into 6th keep holding it down and it'll jump from 6th to 3rd and all hell will break loose
other than that, anytime i can get it to crackle and pop I do. Always puts a smile on my face.

Someone smarter than me can probably figure out how to make a properly sized sub box port using the trunk's measurements for an even better effect than just flipping the seats down.

Straight pipe the resonator! Trust me its the cheapest most effective mod! All it does is make the stock sound louder on startup and under throttle -No Drone! People often say I performed voodoo to the car because to sounds so much better than stock! oh yah it cost me $80 haha

What shop did it for $80? Is it within the GTA? I wanna put straight pipes on my reso also and install an h-pipe also.
Thanks

I would love to hear how it sounds, do you have a video of it by chance?
PS: Fellas if you are in the West End (Mississauga Area) you can check out Zorro's just off of Dundas. I have had most of my exhaust work done here and the guys are good. Good welds and nice bends.
If the res delete sounds good, I may just get it done in the spring. I don't want it to drone, thats my only concern.
