This is the 3rd resonator that I've tried. The 1st was a generic 20" one that ended up being too loud after a while($80 + welding). The 2nd was a 24" Magnaflow one that was good for a couple months but then seemed deteriorated and was buzzy when cold and just too loud(display model, $115 + welding).
So today I picked up a 36" (41" overall!) one from Unlimited Perf. and Exhaust for $72. It's 4" in dia and supposedly non-restricting.
I get the welding done at Calgary Muffler(really good prices, epecially for repeat customers:banghead: ), and now it's quiet low below 4k, and still totally smooth above.
Finally, no more embarrassment in that area...
I can actually hear some engine noise now.
Thanks to Nick for suggesting Unlimited.

Had I know what to do from the start it would have been below $500 for the exhaust system, but now I could have almost got a stainless pre-fabricated system. That's learning i guess.
Feel free to tell me how bad it sounded, now:D

It sounded pretty good, but like you said it was a little raspy when it was cold.

Congrats on finding your setup! :D
