its the same set up as this one you will see the set up at 1:10

but instead of putting muffler right behind cat, i put the muffler little bit back side

everthing thing else is the same


so your suggestion is to put resonator in the two mid pipe?

resonators. Piping is fine but resonators will tone it down.

I would say resonators or mufflers in the back section. Then you'd have something similar to the Fast Intentions exhaust.

^^ agree
that looks exactly like my FI exhaust minus the mufflers in the back

even with the mufflers it still drones a lil bit just like the OEM exhaust but maybe that has to do with my ART pipes

You could call up Magnaflow and complain but they have a list of excuses they give out, none work. Going from 2.5" pipe to 3" won't change a thing but adding a pair of resonators like the other member suggested should change the sound. Rather than wasting your $$ on mufflers you should have bought BERK'S HFCs (that's where the restriction is) and kept the OE exhaust....
