Yup, and it will be difficult to figure out what quiets things down the most, the turbo or the dual resonator set-up.

It will be nice if it is quiet enough that I don't need to change my Stealth muffler.

it will be plenty quiet with what you have with the turbo on ...my turbo nx has no resonator,3" with a magnaflow oval pan and its way quieter than the VE with 2 resonators and a big ass muffler

Ha, I used to say to my dad years ago when he complained about the volume level on my SE-R's b/c of the exhaust, "if it's too loud you're too old" and he would get all pissed ha

I like the size of the WS2, but just a universal one is $300 bucks, that's nuts! Plus, I agree the shiny muffler and tip are a total cop magnet. I may just try a dual tip Vibrant stealth. How much louder can it possibly be? My car still has the stock cat, plus the rest of the exhaust piping is under 2.5".

...or I can just say screw it, dump the cat, and do a 3" with an Apexi Dunk I still have floating around Which by the way I think is one of the nicest sounding (loud) exhaust setups on a turbo car. NA, not so much.

I got lucky and got my ws2 used in great condition...yeah 300 is rediculous for a muffler.totally agree. The Vibrant is just over 100 bucks and I thought that was alot..LOL

I'm sure the WS2 is a great muffler, I'm just not interested in spending that kind of money on a muffler. Thanks for all the info guys, I may just make a junkyard trip to source a muffler that'll work.

Try a turbo muffler. I would explain more but no one has tried the alternative yet and I have posted it too many times now.
