only a 14" resonator? I think that's your problem. along with the test pipe.

Ok, well I guess I will replace the cat and see how it changes the sound. What size res would you recommend? Any preferences on the cat? Thanks, knight. You've been really helpful with this.

Not saying some other people weren't helpful! Cause there were a ton of helpful people in here!

As big as you can get, you might lose a few horses but the sound will change quite a bit. And get any high flow cat you can find. anything will be better than a test pipe.

So like the WS ceramic and a 22" magnaflow should be good?

Good pricing on them here

Great. I know you probably can't say, but do you think that will get rid of all the rasp?? Anyone have a similar setup?

The combination of the 22in vs the 14in resonator and the high flow cat vs the test pipe should reduce noise and rasp quite a bit.

Do you have a wideband? I'm trying to figure out where I should have my wideband put at in my obx headers before I put them on.
