Default Exhaust advice

I Just bought a thermal R&D classic exhaust for my 02 civic. I got the full cat back, it came with a resonator. 2 questions... should i leave the resonator on, or should i get rid of it... what will get me a more crisp, non ricy sound.. And should I hollow out my cat, with the ulev i hear it restricts a lot of horse..
Get back to me.... -Reed:thumbup:

thats what im thinkin, cept i hear its cheaper and pretty damn easy to push a pole up the cat and knock all the sh*t loose, then rev up the engine and it all spits out, its the same as a high flow cat

i just bought a race cat for my 2k si and i think its worth the price 133 shipped also i can save the stock one so when i have to get e checked i can switch it back. i wouldnt tear up my stock cat they're too exspensive to replace. just order one of the powercore race cats from landspeed it will save you in the long run plus its polished stainless steel and looks good
