Yah even Tony at FI says it has a very small hiss decelerating but under load exhaust tone is even deeper and smoother when paired with there catback...

I had a hissing noise even when I had a stock exhaust.
It just gets amplified together as your exhaust note gets amplified.

It doesn't really bother me anymore though I thought my exhaust was leaking somewhere before..

99% they claim the resonators don't make any performance difference but it has no raspy.

What you're saying is true JJN007, resonators do increase the pressure drop accross the test pipe aka back pressure on the engine, but nothing you would notice or feel that it could be neglected. And besides, those are nothing compared to the resonators in the midpipes

Yes sir, i'm enjoying so much. especially the smell cause it makes me high when driving........lol jk

I still love it for sure. after driving a week, it gets quiet down a little bit and (before getting the TPs, I was looking for a way to increase the cabin noise slightly louder and deeper) it is perfect now. I wish I did this mod earlier.

I started receiving lots of compliments (w/ a few complaints from my wife) since the day. Nobody notices test pipes because it is not loud frankly after it gets quiet. When going WOT, it is loud enough to make everyone's head turn.

I'm kinda regretting that I didn't wait for the MXP test pipes though..
that's the only complaint I have.
