wat do you guys think????

hey guys quick question. i got the buschur bullet catback. ive heard it with a cat and ive heard it with a resonator test pipe. resonator pipe makes huge sound difference. do you guys think it would be louder if i just put a regular 3 inch pipe instead of the cat and the resonator test pipe.

the test pipe made a huge difference in loudness right? a resonator usually just changes the exhaust tone note, not really muffling it. so replacing it with 3" pipe might not make a big difference. but i havent had any experience with it so im not exactly sure

i have run a test pipe in place of the cat, and have a resonator further down stream right before the muffler. It sounds VERY deep, and has a lot of bass, but it is not overly loud at all while cruising (doesn't drone), but does get a little loud when at WOT.

Might just be me but I rode around for a week with my cat still in after my catback was installed.I then took the cat off and used 3" Test pipe.I noticed little to no difference in sound.

they're inherently louder without resonators, It will be more of a "raw" sound.
