Could you post up the link to the thread on it? I'm interested in doing this as well and want to hear a sound clip of it. Thanks!

Mine's gone and it hasn't caused a reg. problem yet. Just make sure you don't take it to a really gung-ho smog station.

btw... Spugen did mine and did a great job.

I'll have mine at the Spugen BBQ next w/e if you'd like to listen. Just look for the Spa owner wearing yellow. (That's usually me )

where exactly is the resonator located and what the fvck does it look like? is it the penis looking thing that sticks out? thats called the helmholz (sp?) resonatore right, to cut out droning?

i would do this in a heartbeat if it does not cause any type of droning...
