Here is a question Tony. I'm still debating changing my exhaust. I have PPE headers, they rasp like crazy, and I have gotten it tamed. Assuming these rasp as bad as test pipes, would 12" resonators be enough (with or w/o HFC option), or would 18" resonators be the safer bet? I would call, but location is not very permitting (AFG COP).

I have the F.I. headers paired with the 18" resonators and SS cans and can say that it quiets down the potential rasp (even though I don't hear any). The cruising volume is a decent level and you don't have to talk Over the exhaust to someone else in the car. But when you want to get on it, it will be there to roar for you.

Thanks for the update. I know if I opt for the HFC's, it will be quieter than w/o. So to compensate, I was thinking maybe 12" Appreciate the info. I was looking for a sound clip of 12" resonators and TP's, but maybe I suck and couldn't find it. They rasp similar to PPE's, so I thought it would be a good indicator.
