i have a full magnaflow catback, with no resonator, because it was silencing too much of the sound and ****... now will the Magnaflow CAT increase sound and everything/??

trictive the louder the sound..if u want more noise go with a magna flow straight thru muffler and losing the catalyst will give you more sound too doubt changing ur stock cata to magna one will make much sound diff.

I personally have a very very large resonator. I have a 36 inch long glass pack for a resonator. I get nothing but compliments on my exhaust and recommend it to everyone.

im taking my res out of that system i got... its not loud at all since i went back to a stock header and dp
theres no sensor in the cat.. its just an o2 post cat to check for cat effiency.. so if you dont have a cat it thinks your cat **** the bed.. the o2 pre cat is on the header

it judges the air quality after the exhaust passes threw your cat... hence if you dont have one it thinks your current cat or lack of it is malfunctioning
no i still have my header dp and cat .. my stock setup is on the car
