Each to their own I guess.

Putting in a hot dog/resonator would probably give a better sound. Agree.I have tried a few things. Swapped out the resonator last week for one of these http://www.ebay.com....=item5ae11e31f3 to create some more restriction and then hiflowed the cat it's a nice balance for me anyways.

It's loud, sounds good inside. Hopefully quietens down a bit though.Funny thing is I've been in FG's with 3.5, 4 and twin 3 inch systems and I honestly can't tell the difference.
