With a resonator, the Magnaflow won't crackle. Not even with a high flow cat.

Can't wait till the snow melts away mostly, so I can get the flowmaster on there and take it on a "test dive." Could you feel much of difference between stock and the flowmaster driverjohn?

to an extent. it wasn't substantial like the smaller pulley but still noticable.

lol, um... the ram air gives off a little less performance, I'd say about 10hp. Once I get some type of shield on it it'll be more efficient. The muffler is a good start. It was the first mod I did to my car and it'* a good place to begin.

Dude, Alex don't go w/o a highflow cat, that'* where the performance is at, especially with your car'* age. Grab a resonator along with a highflow cat.
