AMS exhuast video clip...
The message was Friday from Kris. Maybe they changed their minds ? I don't disbelieve you AT ALL Emil. Don't think I was trying to say that. I just wanted the members looking to not be confused. Now I am confused !

I was just there on Wednesday to pick up exhausts, and they told me that after these 5 exhausts, they will make it only with the resonator.

Does that mean that I am resonator free?
Bill,
Yours came without a resonator... as did all others before...
It is my understanding that when they set up the jig (sp), originally, they set it up for the resonator to be there.. I'm not a welder.. so don't ask me details about this..
Anyway, the bottom line, is that now it's too difficult (requires two people to balance the exhaust while welding) and time-consuming to make it w/o the resonator...
This is what I was told.. but it could have been changed..
The resonator will just make it a little quieter, which is OK.. especially when you add a downpipe and race cat or test pipe...

Got my exhaust on. 
Sounds great, just like the clip only a bit quieter. Probably more so when cruising. Also upped my boost pressure with the restrictor mod.
I did notice when it get's hot and expands it is just touching the bumper. (pushing rearward) Will have to look at that and see if there is anything I can do. Since the DP is solid and everything else there is no real flex in the piping.

I went with Buschur Racings 3" turbo back with test pipe. I like the louder sound. Here's a little clip. Doesn't do it justice at all considereing the vid was taken with my Nokia 3650 but not too bad. It sounds better if you have decent speakers and a sub.

So is this clip http://www.renn-art.com/renn-art.com...%20catback.avi with, or without the resinator?
Most likely without. I have the w/out resinator clip on my site www.drcimports.net
