You will gain a horrible drone inside the car and gain 0 (zero) HP. I'd suggest looking in the classified section and picking up a mid-pipe from a Coupe - it's a direct swap, cheap and will give you the sound you are probably looking for.

Wrong, u will get 0 drone and a lot rasp, especially when the car is cold. As far as the power goes, u might gain 0.5 hp but im not sure u are gonna "feel" that.

Had the resonator taken out on my old set up....no rasp at all...just sounds like 2 steel pipes hitting each other fast...Personally I like it.
