I ended up shearing a bolt where the downpipe connects to the resonator in the middle of our cars so I had to run it a day or so without being connected...

I can say a couple things about it...

sounds NICE at the 1200rpm idle, and quieted down at 800 or when braking.
Sounds ricey as hell when you hit 4000 or better...
Lose a shitload of torque...

make sure you have some backpressure somewhere lol....
