Dont forget you can get the resonated HFCs from FI too, I dont know if that will help stop the rasp or not but combined with the CBE resonators that should keep it more quiet than those without the HFC resonators. I thought about theirs but the price is too steep for me so I will be going ERZ HFCs combined with my FI CBE. Should sound good. With the way my FI CBE with 12 resonators sounds right now, which is about perfect, not too loud but loud enough that it gets noticed and no rasp, if you go FI CBE 12 resonaotrs and FI resonated HFCs you will like the sound as it should be loud but not ricer loud.

Be careful going with a HFC that uses a 200 cell cat. They are less restrictive and will be LOUDER than ours. I know that ours are more expensive but when you first came to me you told me that you wanted the quietest option available. Our resonated high flow cats are it. In the end whatever you decide to go with, I do hope that it works for you. I just wanted to put my 2 cents in...

Thanks, Tony

No problem, I dont want too loud (which is why I wont do test pipes or LTHs) but I dont want too expensive either. For me price is at the top of the priority list with performance and quality. Id love to have the res HFC but its just too steep for me for the gains. Love the CBE tho.

If the money is the top priority then go with just a high flow cats. They are $120 less than the res. HFC's...

Thanks, Tony
