anyone in SD have this done? I would like to check it out. Also why didn't you guys at the muffler shop have them do an x-pipe for you??? The scavenging effect is proven to make more HP and torque btw.

Can someone who has done the mod chime in....how is the raspiness after removing the resonator? It seems from that first clip that was posted of the silver slk that the exhaust is raspy and has that annoying pop sound. Any input available? ILoud is great if it sounds tuned, but not if it has that horrible raspiness to it.

just hit me up. You are located in the bay area so you can always stop by and listen to my car.

The only thing is my car has headers, cats as well so its quite a bit louder than just the xpipe.

Where in the bay area are you?


Also, can someone please tell me how long the resonator is? I ordered dual magnaflow resonators and want to make sure that they will fit in the space once I remove the stock resonator.
