Resonated test pipes reduces the rasp & hiss that are inherent with regular test pipes. I paid more for the extra ding dongs so I don't have to deal with any unwanted noises. And I didn't pay $500, got it second hand with less than a thousand miles on them courtesy of the classified section

there's plenty on here who do the same as well. it is a great product.

their products sold me on the sound and quality of their work. the bonus was when the car was strapped to the dyno lol

not sure if there would be the 10-12 week wait if just ordering test pipes from them. CBE is 10-12 week wait based on the demand and everything being hand built.

not sure how those two sound together but the hiss will happen no matter which brand or setup you choose. the hiss comes from removing the cats.

rasp however the res version will help relieve some of that.
