I'm not sure I would use the word "always" when saying which one to go for. It really comes down to personal taste, right?

It really is personal opinion I think. I know a few people on here with a catless header and straight pipe. Is it crazy loud and raspy? Yes. Would I want that exhaust on my FRS? No. But they like it. The resonated version will be louder, especially if you end up running a catless header down the road. I would just see how you like it at first, and a resonator can always be added down the road if you think it is too much. Let me know if you have any other questions man. You will like it, its a great cat-back for sure!

I'm sure I'll like it. I like loud. I had a Porsche 996 with some cannon bombs for an exhaust set-up. It made your teeth rattle and fall out, but it was enjoyable to me 😁

i think a lot of the rasp comes from the uel headers. the 'subaru rumble' is pretty much deep rasp to begin with. it's really noticeable side-by-side, but the uel's seem a lot louder and more abrasive regardless of which catback they're used with.

Here's an iPhone sound clip. It needs to settle a bit, but I like the sound so far. It should ease in nicely after I put a few miles are on it...
