I'd rather go to Home Depot and make my own using squared rain gutters and make my own custom exhaust.

I'd then weld a good ol' Maxwell Coffee Can powdercoating it black as my tip. If budget allows, I'd go with 2 Hills Bros. coffee cans.
Sweet! I'm smelling a group buy on this piece.

Just have a shop cut out your existing resonator and replace it with a straight section and be done with it. It'll save you a few pounds, bring the sound level up just enough so you'll be able to hear the engine better on rev-matched (heel & toe) downshifts....and at around $50 you can spend the rest of your budget on a Driving School and / or beer

TalonTSiDude-- to quote user Colin Andrews, "It's a Helmholtz resonator - cuts the boom 4 cylinder cars get around 4000 rpm."

I hope I don't sound too ignorant, but... do you empty out the coffee beans first? and does it matter if they're decaffeinated?

I want to get the SuperSprint exhaust, but so few places sell it! I love the oval exhaust tips (makes it look "stock" on the '04s). From what I hear on the clips, it sounds nice too ... but I've never gotten the opportunity to hear it in person.

Need to get a GB going on it here

WHAT?! Are you ignorant? Of course you need the beans in there and of course they have to be caffeinated. C'mon. Do you put gas in your car? Is it high octane or low octane? Sh*t man. Common sense should've answered this question.

By the way, people tell me Folder's is better cuz it gives it a more throaty sound without droning. Something about the Crystals in the the grind.
