Why 22" for street?? I am looking for resonators now myself and am wondering why you suggest 22 over any others besides to quiet it down.
Thanks
Thanks

I myself have been looking direct at kteller.com at the resonators.
I am just trying to figure if 22" is absolutely necessary or if 18" would be good at 2.25 diameter exhaust with twin loop muffler...

On my d16 dc header 2.25" the 18" was to quiet for me. It sounded stock.
Went with 12" and sounds great without the buzz when you let off the gas.
What I would say is try it.. If it is to loud or to quiet then swap it out.
What sounds loud to one person might sound good to someone else.

yeah i figured 22 would be way quiet and figured 18 would be a smidge less... I did find a 16" so I will start with that and then reduce if needed.

For those 
whom are new and is not sure regarding Resonator length...18'inch is perfect, just because it gives you the right amount of back pressure, free flowing and, your VTEC will love you long time(lol just kidding...but yeah, i have the Magnaflow 14's now, i wish i would have gotten the 18's....on the Mids it breathes well enough but, low end suffer a little bit though.
