Not one of my best videos but IT IS the idea. I got out of work and took a video with my Android S3 phone so hope you get an idea of the setup. My setup is Non resonated T.P with Non Res'd CF CBE. (Like I said NOT A high quality video but hope you get an idea, Its a Beast A$$ Setup!)

Good day fellow members,

I have a question for those with FI CBE. I just order a new set and debating whether there should be a 12'' resonator or non-resonated. I've done some research on the forum but I couldn't find any specific information on sound level for FI CBE only. So I'd like to seek advice from you.

1. How loud is non-resonated? (will it get on your nerve if you drive for a long time)? This is not my DD but it is the only car I got so it needs to take me everywhere.
2. I don't think I will get the HFC. But I may add in oil cooler, CAI (possibly stillen) and Turbo later on. If I get non-resonated, will this cause the sound level to go crazy?
3. I'm a newb to mods so I don't think I'm a good candidate myself on installations. Wondering if anyone know a good performance shop around Chicago area for me to take the exhaust in for installation?

Thanks a lot guys for your help!

There is allot of road noise that gets picked up but I have some casual driving, some down shifts with S-mode, and the last little bit it probably running it up to 4500-5500 rpms. More to come when I get the audio worked out. BTW the mic is tucked up where the license plate lights are.

Yes the exhaust won't have much affect on being able to talk at cruising speeds. Once you get on it I think both you and your passenger will be listening to a very intoxicating exhaust note. It really does make these cars sound great.

I will says over the hundreds of video I have watched while I have been waiting really doesn't do the FI system justice. The crisp deep throaty sound it much deeper and stronger in person. Not harsh or deafening sounds really really good. Later this week I will see if I can isolate the road noise and delete it from the audio.

I originally ordered the 18s but bought the 12s off another member just to see what the difference was. It seemed pretty minimal to be honest, it gives the idle a little more growl but i think the main difference is with the AC on. The 12s can get pretty loud. People are really aggressive when i have the AC on because it seems like im reving it out but im not:rofl2:
Guess that goes for any loud exhaust hah!

I really enjoy the 12s though, it brung up the volume enough for me to where its not completely ridiculous. I can still drive it keeping the volume down but whenever i want to make some noise it isn't hard :)

I can try to get a video in cabin with windows down and up maybe.
