you can barely tell the difference. (kinda crappy either way, imo)

Any o/r midpipe will have some raspiness, especially at 2500 or so RPMS. I had an O/R prochamber and magnapacks. It was raspy at 2500 RPMS. I installed hi-flow cats and the raspiness and trumpeting was gone. Granted the volume was reduced but it was still louder than stock catted H and magnapacks.

You can't have it both. Adding hi-flows will reduce the volume but not that much. It will be worth it.

Aren't resonators the exact same thing as high flows?

So should I go resonators, which I was told by Chandler are high flow cats, or should I do Pypes M80 mids?

Resonators change the sound waves and cats burn the excess fuel and gases. thats the simple side of it

i believe M80s are just glass pacs, doesnt sound like you need cats. i would go resonators. my opinion

Resonators will be the less expensive option. Another option altogether is to put the stock catted H back on and go will a louder axleback such as SLP LM.

no, they would be more likely called mufflers but will do approximately the same thing.

i went with glass pacs in backwards because it was a cheap test, cost me 60$ at the muffler shop.
