Custom piping Question, Need help!
i have a question for you guys:
Im probably going to be taking my ek hatchback to the muffler shop next week to get some custom piping done and i wanted to know what would be best....
2.25'' straight cat-back piping w/o resonator, with a spoon n1 angled n' welded
or
2.5'' straight cat-back piping w/o resonator, with a spoon n1 angled n' welded.
or
have a resonator added too any of the above choices? any help would be appreciated. Im tryin not to get that ricey sound w/ the custom piping, just more of the beefy deep tone w/ better performance!

Re: (SpoonEk253)
Unless you're building a serious motor, I'd say 2 1/4 with resonator.
If you are, do the 2 1/2 with resonator.
The resonator will quiet down the rasp that plague'd the best of us.
If you decide you dont care about the noise, drop the resonator.

I went with 2.5 inch piping with a 3" resonator and a turbo muffler and it sounds great. Its alot deeper and not as raspy as my full CTR cat-back and muffler. I would just sell that N1 and get and Es' muffler or something. Plus its really low pro.
