It's done. I'll take a few picture tomorrow. It looks and sounds great, plus, I had them remove the "cimped pipe" and weld in another.

12" Resonator installed and removed the factory one. My resonator is exactly the same size as the Greddy and full stainless steel. I should have taken pics of the under body. I will change the resonator and put on a Magnaflow resonator on because this one is too loud inside the car but outside its not. If mine sounds like this I can image what the Cattman sounds like without a resonator.

I have Magnaflow resonator on stock mufflers, the piping changed. My car is a little louder(deeper) than stock, idle and WOT. Since you are adding the resonator, change the piping all the way to the rear split, but keep same diameter.

Thanks, I had a 05 Max in Aug of 2004, Winter Frost, that I put Magnaflows on. I think I was one of the first here with them on the 6th Gen. Once I get that 07 spoiler I will be happy and of course change the resonator to a Magnaflow to keep the noise inside down.

3.5 Lover - that exhaust looks awesome. I have a couple questions about it. What is the model # of the mufflers? What kind of resonator did you use and model # if you know? Can we get a video to hear what that thing sounds like? Looks pretty mean and I would imagine it sounds mean as well. Keep up the good work.

I will see if I can do a clip with my camera since it has a recorder on it when I get off work today.

Pretty sure the the same as mine:
Magnaflow 14816 Dual Tip Double Wall Stainless
Description: 14x5x8 2.25 Inlet / 3.5" Dual-Double Wall Round Straight Cut 3.5" Tips, Mirror Finish Stainless Muffler

Next for me is the y-pipe, resonator change and replace the crimped pipe.
I do wish now that I had gone and done it all correctly. Supposedly that was the plan when Berk used my car for a test fit but then he disappeared on me and now I just have these mufflers welded into my stock piping...

Yeah, when I saw "the crimp" I told my installer to replace that pipe while it's up. I don't plan on doing the resonator. I don't want it any louder than what it is now.

correct me if I am wrong, but doesn't the resonator lower the amount of sound?

Yes it does, but those guys are replacing the stock resonator with an aftermarket one that isn't as quiet as the stock. I'm sure it will breath a little better and all that jazz, but I don't want it any louder. Just my taste.
