Stop posting dribble.

That's the res on that exhaust system.

OP, I can't be sure what you meant just the res or the whole chunk of piping?

When I custom made my exhaust, I used a glass pack as a res works great and low cost.

Is there anywhere I can buy the pipe from the cat to the axle back? I think it's called the intermediate or a pipe. I don't know but I know I need that/those pipes.

Yes, the res can and will alter the tone, really depending on the kind some are just tubes others are tubes with a inside mesh or something else, even others are stuffed with fiberglass of sorts.

Alot of things alter and change the sound of the exhaust swapping brands of res will not make a huge change but it can and will alter the tone somewhat depending on what else is done.

Personally, I'm picky and I'm quite happy with my setup, it's a cheap way to improve tone.

thanks for the info when i bought this part they had to custom make it... well i dono if custom make is the correct thing to say.
they dont kept my catback exhaust on the shelf when u order it they pull out the blueprints and make it. thats y it took like 3 months and like 700 bucks . so u can see why im being picky
ive had this exhaust for like 4 years so im hoping i can find the paper work but im low on cash so i dono what to do i dont wanna pay 200 bucks for them to make that part for me
