And I don't want that. But your car's exhaust note sounds excellent, and I can't wait until the day when I can start modifying my car. BTW, do you have any idea how much hp you gained with your mods? Thanks.

For how good it sounds, the interior drone is minimal and mild under normal acceleration. Once you hop on it, you'll def hear it, and so will others. Overall it's a reasonable and cheap setup. It's merely 2 flowmaster 40's and removed resonator. There are probably no hp gains as the stock resonator and mufflers aren't really restrictive....but it sure makes it "feel" faster since you hear it. If anything, it's a slight weight reduction to the car.

PS: A removed resonator is perfectly "legal" when it comes to your warranty.
