Just bought the Hooker catted front pipe and Agency power Catback. I'm taking a big sound risk with Agency catback so I'm hoping the Hooker with the Jpipe resonator will balance out the potential drone of the AP CB. Was drew to the AP CB because of the 25lb weight. This will be all going on my new aCe 350 headers.

Worst case I can keep my Invidia Catted FP and HKS legamax catback because It sounds good with this. Just wanted to go with full 2.5" piping to mate up with ace headers and lose some weight.

So this is what I ended up with Exhaust Wise. Ace CS400 headers, ceramic coated yellow, Ace Front pipe (no resonator, ceramic coated as well) into a 2.5" stainless system with a Vibrant straight through "super Quiet" resonator, and a magnaflow 6" diameter straight through muffler. Shaved 20 or so lbs, and got the super sweet pie cut turn-down tip I always wanted

Sounds fantastic at full tilt, and my totally biased, cash-hemmorage-influenced opinion is that it is best haha!

I'm really digging that setup!

My next exhaust will either be a similar custom setup or the CLEiB single exit catback. I'd imagine the custom route would actually be cheaper. haha
