Lol I would say go no resonators. My exhaust with CF mufflers was almost quiet as stock when cruising, with no drone at all. But give it just a little gas and it would come to life. You can always have a lager resonator welded on, but a smaller one not so much. They don't make THAT much of a difference anyway.

I don't have resonators. However I had a mustang gt back in the day with a borla exhaust and got resonators on it to help with the v8 rasp, 2 18" ones and they didn't do crap. Same on my civic.

Do it! You won't be disappointed, especially if you still have the stock cats. I swapped my order from 18" SS to 12" CF and it was one of the best decisions I made. Conversation/music is not a problem (which I was worried about), even with the slight drone you get in the 2000rpm range. I have mine paired with the Berk HFC's and feel like I could have gone non res CF and been fine.

I can, but my tuner was not that great. He kept tellin me that the stock Nissan tune was the best and most stable and he would deviate from that. I ran a baseline of 299hp, he got me up to 308hp and 256tq. It was also like 101 degrees in th tuning bay so I'm sure that had something to do with it.

He also said he wasn't gonna waste time on maps and that they were "just a bunch of hype" so I told him to stop tuning and take it off the dyno. Didn't want to pay for an argument.

Must be why everyone that does "deviate" from that picks up so much power.

Are you planning on going to another (better) tuner and getting it done right? I'm curious to see how you do with the LTH's and Intakes you have.

This fall, I'm going to do some more dyno pulls with my current tune and see how things shake out with the new FI CBE... I was around 328 WHP with the Nismo OEM exhaust... hoping the FI CBE nets me some more ponies..!

Well our setups are vastly different too..

PPE Race headers rather than FI
UpRev (tuned by Jared from UpRev) rather than the Cobb tuner
Nismo R-Tune intakes rather than ... ? (Though I am getting rid of them, or re-purposing their piping into something I like better)
