Not interested in putting the stock axleback back on, so I've been scouring the forums for resonator related posts.

Seems like the non-uniform circumference and bends of the midpipe make it kind of a pain in the ass to work with, but from what I've gathered the Vibrant 1792 bottle resonator is pretty good and will fit. The Vibrant 1141 2.5" Ultra Quiet Resonator looks to be more effective (?) but will not fit the stock midpipe without a lot of chopping things up...not sure if it's worth it.

Looking for feedback from anyone who has done this this...will probably wind up having Minute Muffler in Dublin do it, seems like the go-to place around here for exhaust stuff.
The two main things involved in how loud your exhaust is, is if you have or how many cats you have. And what catback you choose.

Looks like you removed the cats, and chose a loud axleback. Should have got
A quieter catback.
