would it fit there? I cant remember if it would or not..........I personally dont think it would sound good as the mufflers and the res are designed to quiet different tones......fwiw..........Just my .02

mufflers wont fit where the resonator is. the only thing that will fit is a bullet muffler and those are loud. leave the exhaust the way its designed. if you do anything just switch the mufflers.

Haha looks like we have very different styles, sleepers are cool but idk I love loud ass exhuasts... As long as they don't sound like farts. Were the flowmasters loud enough that you could hear them clearly at 2000 rpms?

yes, very. that is where they drone and drone a lot. my car shook.

our cars will NEVER have a good exhaust note, just so you know that. youll never get it to sound good like you want. just a heads up...
