Resonator question.

Tommy G · 10-13-2011, 08:58 PM

The major difference from going with Resonated and Non-Resonated is the Drone inside the car and the rasp outside the car. Resonators reduce drone inside the car and the rasp outside. The do slightly decrease the volume overall. The lack of rasp with the resonators causes people to call the resonated systems deeper but its really just removing the rasp. I have the 18" Resonated system with the standard mufflers. I have not yet received my Headers and have the stock cats.

No matter what setup you go with FI you are going to make a great choice! As for Tony's customer service it has been impeccable. He always returns calls as soon as he can. If you call him and tell him what you are looking for he will explain all the options and what the differences are. He spent over 30 minutes on the phone with me when I ordered my system back in July.

Thanks for that. You cleared it up a little more for me.

I wasn't trying to bash the customer service. I was telling you guys that I didn't get a response so you know I at least tried before I posted. Not saying you were implying that, but what you said did trigger the thought to clear that up. Thanks again.

This whole thing made me change my order from no resonators to going with the 18". Man, I can't wait! Like a kid waiting on Christmas!

It is so worth the wait! I drove the car over 600 miles this week just to enjoy the sound! I am sure I will do it again once I get the headers from Tony.

Glad I could be of some help.
