    obnoxious loud. theres very few mufflers that sound "good" 3800 sounds like crap.

    long glass pack will kill most drone, but the zzp muffs may over ride the glass pack. cause loud.

    dont buy a resonator, you just paying twice as much for the same thing as a glass pack

    if your changing the intermediate pipe why not just go 3 inch pipe and 3 inch glass pack and 3 inch mufflers. the only set ups i like are full 3 inch set ups. sounds the best.

    Only way I really recommend a resonator if it you were keeping the stock one in place other then that glasspack are cheaper

    I have a big glasspack in place of the res. Two magnaflow muffers. Downpipe and u bend delete. Sounds good enough. Little to no drone depends on what speed I am going.

    It gives a nice krackle when letting off the gas.
