I have a 90 and run straight pipe w/no cat and no resonator and put a glass pack on. Loud as **** but top end kills. Ran a 14.33 at San Antonio raceway last weekend.

I put a glasspak on my exhaust. Made a substantial difference.

Adding a resonator also gets rid of that "ripping/tearing fabric" sound. It'll make the exhaust tone deeper as well. Get a perforated core aka straight-through resonator, as opposed to a louvered core which will hamper the exhaust flow.
