Aftermarket Resonators
Ok heres the deal. I'm thinking about going with an aftermarket resonator for the max with the stock exhaust system for now. I know some of you guys have the magnaflow and flowmaster resonators on your cars. Give me input on the best way to go. I'm not looking to upgrade the whole exhaust system just yet.

I got the magnaflow's 14805's with a 25" magnaflow resonator and the sound is nice, BUT the drone inside the cabin would give you a headache at 2k-2.5k RPM which is usually normal traffic driving. I'm switching back to stock res...

Really, I have the same setup (with 2.5" piping to the back) and the 22" and the droning isn't so bad. I guess it's all personal preference though!

You think just changing the mufflers instead would be a better idea? I'm looking for a nice deep sound. No rice rocket inline 4 crap.

There always the cattman resonator. I think it comes attached as one piece with the b-pipe. I remember when i talked to Brian when i bought my catback exhaust he said that you can get the b-pipe and it will hookup with the stock mufflers. You should give him a call to get more info.

I'd go full cat-back or none at all imho. I made the mistake on a previous car of getting a Magnaflow muffler (which was awesome) and then individually replacing the crimp bends with mandrel bend and all that... turned out to be more expensive over time.
But it's the bends that are truly restrictive, 2nd are the mufflers and then the resonator(s) ;-)

Vigilante- I'm not as concerned with pics as I am with price. I know from all of the Cattman product owners on this site that their products are high quality, otherwise there would be bad reviews lol. All I'm saying is that they should post product info for us with the 6th gens on their site.

That is the sexiest exhaust for the 6th gen hands down. Maybe if they posted pics on their website more people would buy them
U pretty much have to be a member of this forum to even know that they exist...
