Right, I should eat healthier. Make that brown rice and tossed. I am currently running the RSR ExMag, I like the way it points straight out, not angled. As for a downpipe I would go with either a PDE or Maddad.

Rudy, if you crawl under my car you will know exactly what I'm talking about.... You won't believe how much that resonator weighs! (I think I saved 4 lbs by deleting it) Its a Frankenstein exaust that is ugly and rainchy at WOT, but a whisperer at idle.... I have had no issues with my pde dp either....

I have OBX equal length headers and u/p, cobb d/p, and a Nur Spec axel back. Trying to get a full cat-back soon. Personally I put on the d/p first, then the headers and u/p, then the axel back. I felt the biggest difference when I put on the d/p. The headers and u/p gave a good response at higher rpms. The axel back didn't help much, but it made it sound really good....and LOUD Now I am ready for the full cat-back though. Hope that helped.

better title might have been who DOESN"T run a catback. Most here are beyond catback and run tbe. I personally run equal-length headers/uppipe, and RSR tbe. It's loud. I'm actually thinking about selling it, but it's light, and I care about weight. To each his/her own.
