    Do you notice a big diffrence without the ubend now? Im thinking of staying N/A and so far have a CAI but want to go HV3, ER rockers, etc.... just wondering how your car is now with your mods?

    The u-bend doesn't do a whole lot but it just opens up flow for more mods. My setup definitely pulls harder and sounds louder. The exhaust pops when I go WOT and then go off it. I do feel less low-end though but it makes up for it in top-end. I currently have HAI, 3" catless DP, res+u-bend delete and overkill tune. I have plans for HV3, Plog and ER rockers as well. If you're going to do plog and downpipe at once just get headers for cheaper, I made the mistake of not getting headers.

    It pops and rasps because you don't have a resonator.

    They aren't a restriction.

    Put one back in your car so it doesn't sound like dog crap.

    Glasspack's are super cheap.

    They do the same thing.

    They are less than $30 USD.

    lol son?

    You've got no friends to borrow stuff from?

    No parts stores that let you borrow tools?

    Man, Canada must suck.

    Just a thought, maybe save some money instead of modding incase something goes WRONG to the car?

    Which is will since it's a grand prix.

    not expecting something to go wrong to a straight pipe res, which is why it would be pointless atm to waste money on a glasspack since my suspension is getting funky and rust is appearing everywhere
