The resonator size that we offer does one thing. It changes the overall sound LEVEL of the exhaust. The 12" will be louder opposed to the 18" will be quieter. If you plan to keep the stock cats on the car, the 12" will sound nice and in my opinion not be too loud...

Thanks, Tony

The 12'' is not too loud at all, imo -- but remember, "too loud" is subjective so I suggest to try your best to hear it in person.

Out of 10 what would everyone rate for *loudness*

12inch res with stock cats = ???

18inch res with HFC's = ???

Call me crazy, but from the clips I've seen on you tube. The 12inch sounds better with stock cats however with HFC's the 18inch sounds better.

The vids only give you an "idea" of the sound. The 18" would be deeper and smoother than the 12", I believe. The larger the resonator, the less rasp present.
