She'* still got the IMCO HF on.... have to get the body work done so the radiator and condensor can go in. Then it'* to the exhaust shop for the quieter Magnaflow.

At the moment the exhaust consists of:

ZZP P-log w/McCoy Motorsports ceramic coating
stock crossover
Stock rear mani
stock down-pipe
Stock Cat
3" glass pack style HF resonator
3" piping from resonator until just between the rear wheels, then 2.5" to the muffler
IMCO HF F-body muffler 2.5" inlet --> dual 2.5" outlets
??? brand oval dual walled and resonated exhaust tips.

Wil eventually add:
ceramic coated crossover and rear PEM,
3" ceramic coated DP
3" HF cat installed (have already)
finsh piping with 3"
3" Magnaflow Wide Open F-body muffler 3" inlet --> dual 2.5" outets

Will be slapping undercoating onto the top of the muffler as a possible way to reduce cabin noise.

If that setup doesn't prove to be as quiet or quieter than the current setup I'm going to yank the resonator and put two small 3" Magnaflow mufflers in it'* place. heavy I know, but still flowing well and should be quite abit less provoking to the police.

I haven't had a chance to listen to the exhaust clip yet (and won't be able to until I get home), but regarding the police comment -- the cops LOVE hearing my 2.5" exhaust with the Magnaflow hi-flow cat and dual outlet muffler. I've been pulled over for it too many times to count and it'* getting old. Slightly off topic, but any thoughts on how to quiet it down?? Will the stock airbox reduce the noise a bit?

Back on topic, I'm thrilled to see that it'* closer to being on the road!

You should try a resonator... it will definitely quiet things down.
or you might try a small straight through oval or round 2.5" generic muffler right after the cat.

BUMP -ON THE ROAD!!!!!! Don't have the valve train goods in yet, but she does like to say no to traction on clean dry pavement @ 45 mph.
In the morning right away I'm heading up to get the CASE Learn taken care of so I'm easing off it tonight...

P.*. Say a prayer for my transmission please.
