You must not like to hear yourself think while driving. That set up would wake up the entire state of Washington.

AznVirus,

When and if you decide to get a cat-back custom exhaust, it is highly recommended by many (read Mike Kojima's article in SCC on custom exhausts. I believe it was the October issue ???) to install a glasspack after the cat. Then the piping will lead to your aftermarket muffler and exit through the tip of your choice.

The glasspack will drastically cut back on in-cabin resonance and will give the exhaust a more milder deeper tone.

Most aftermarket bolt-on catbacks (Greddy, etc) have an actual resonator already built in to the piping. No need to add one yourself.

Now, if you want to have a bumble bee exhaust "bwabwabwa...buzzzzzbuzzzbuzzbuz!!", be my guest and follow TIZAO's advice.
