FI CBE w/o resonator or 12" resonator?

03heritage · 02-10-2013, 12:45 PM

Just wonderring if any members have experience w/ just the FI CBE exhaust w/o resonator, or the same exhaust w/ a 12" resonator? I'm looking for good sound, and I'm not lookng for a really quiet cabin. I'm buying the exhaust for looks and good sound. I like shifting gears w/ the engine sound. Tony said I shouild go w/ 12" resonator, I was just wonderring how much louder it would be w/o resonator. I've looked @ lots of vids, cann't really get an idea. Thanks, for replys. p.s. I have a 2.4l Honda w/ Injen CBE w/ no resonator, not loud @ all.

I have non-res and really like it except for my wife on long trips. I almost had Tony switch in an 18" for me but I bought her a nice Bose headset instead so she can tune it out and enjoy her tunes whenever she like it and I can enjoy the drive. The great sound is too much to waste with resonators.

... And she tunes you out too... NOW I see why you're on the forum until 2AM

OP, go with the 12"

My Wife complained when I wanted mine in. "Why do you want to put it on your car? It sounds good already." "I have everything already! Why wouldn't I want it on? I don't like they way it sounds right now" Exhaust installed... she liked it and hasn't complained lol.
