The X pipe was a gigantic difference. It really smoothed out the power band and it feels a lot better. I still don't have the back pressure I used to but that's to be expected. Personally I love the way it sounds. Going from and H to an X pipe really cleans up the exhaust note and brings back that VQ sound. It is still quite loud but now that it actually sounds good I don't have a problem with it. The resonators cut down on the drone quite a bit and unless you load up the engine under 2k rpm it's very tolerable. But I've always liked loud cars so my opinion is a little biased. I probably won't bother with mufflers but if I do I'm going to use dynomax VT series mufflers. Magna flow sounds nice but ironically I like it on everything except the G. I'm a big fan of the higher toned European exhaust note and magna flow always seems to give a deeper sound. Not that's that's a bad thing.
But tomorrow I'll get a video up and let you guys be the judge

WOW I completely forgot about this thread and never updated it once our work season started. Here is a link to the youtube video I just put up. I took this video earlier today because I lost the last video I took. The resonators have broken in and the HKS knockoff cans have since gotten worse, but to recap. This video is with Megan longtubes, non-resonated xpipe, vibrant perf core resonators, and the knock off hks's. Its definitely a different sound, and sounds much different inside the car. Hopefully in the next week here I will FINALLY be removing those ratty cans in favor of some real mufflers. If and when that happens I will be sure to get a new video up asap.
I apologize again for the ...6 month... delay on this video. There is some faint rattling/vibrating in the video caused by the zip-ties I used as a safety tether on the camera. sorry 'bout that.
