He recommended 12 in resonators w SS mufflers and resonated TP. I got scared that 12 in resonators would be too quiet so Im going for non res
the resonators on the CBE itself do not change the exterior volume much at all. it's a small difference.

the resonators really just are there to mitigate the drone of the exhaust on the inside and eliminate some rasp.

volume comes from the CBE in general, removing the super restrictive stock cats, and then the different tones between the SS and CF muffles.

also the LTH and TPs have different sounds as well.

Thank you FPenvy. Im sure ill be happy w the non res cbe and test pipes then since I dont care about interior noise! Also, did it actually take the full 3 months for the FI exhaust to get there or did it come a little early??
