Well for those out there that are turbo its a bit different. Im using straight through 3 in pipe allaround and a testpipe. Nothing but deep sounding goodeness. The turbine acts as an acoustic barracede of somesorts. So it gets rid of that raspy sound.

did you get rid of your resonator? If you did that could explain a whole lot.

Yeah, the stock catback sounded like poop with a test pipe too. It sounds much better on a GST catback cause of the extra resonater :thumbsup
