Why not keep it all together? Ours will go the best with our CBE. Call me and I will get you setup...

Thanks, Tony

I have the FI TDX CBE 18" and resonated HFCs...it's definitely okay volume wise. Is it louder than just the CBE? Yes...by about 30%. You can definitely hear the person next to you just fine. No rasp at all...and I absolutely LOVE the tone. For the added HP, it's worth it IMO. Sorry, can't comment on other HFCs...but a happy FI customer here...

I do not think it will be too loud at all. In fact I think it will be quieter than the coupe.

I would get their resonated HFC's, with the Berk's, mine was a bit too loud around town in the 2k-3krpm range. The resonated ones should cut some of the drone out.

Great point, when in doubt of the High flow cats being too loud, go with our resonated version. They will yield the same gains as our non resonated high flow cats, just quieter and smoother!
