I'm glad to see more interest, because I am really looking forward to this.

The only problem with running three options is that I'd love to run each one for a week to see how I like them, I do want loud but I don't want insane, 100+ db sound that ends up giving me three tickets on noise violations. Plus, carrying that much product would probably increase the end price of each product. Not to mention I'd have to buy all three sections at some point, and if I like the non-resonated version but then try the 12" and then the 18", I'd have to sell the subsequent one to try the next one... then I'd have to sell the 18" to go back to the nonresonated version! I'd love to test these out too, but I don't exactly live very close to Maryland, not to mention it's going to snow here not that long from now.

I would suggest something like the motordyne Y pipe which has the interchangeable rear sections and incorporate those into the midpipe or H pipe, but that introduces more flanges, gaskets, and other things that can break... not to mention more development cost.

Decisions, decisions.

the motordyne set up is great if you run the stock midpipe as it Y's together. Our H-pipe ends with 2 outlets not 1, making it a true dual set up. If anything the resonator option should be 18" for those running short tails, then no resonator or 12" resonators for those that will be running the rear section. But these are all ideas and I appreciate everyone's input!

so with that being said there will be TWO pipes coming off the H-pipe as pictured before. the midpipes will have TWO resonators (1 on each pipe)
