No, not yet. I will be taking pictures when I get my test pipes installed. I am then going to make a thread about it with 3 diff. sound clips.

All they did was cut off the stock resonators, swelted (??) the 4 ends of the Injen piping to the inside diameter of the Magnaflow pipes and then ran a weld bead around each of the 4 joints.

why did you install a muffler instead of keeping the resonators and installing an x-pipe?

The Magnaflow Muffler is a true X Pipe with a perforated core. I added it in place of the resonators because, from what I understand, you want the X Pipe to be as close to the "Y" from the cats as possible. See this thread for more info on this mod https://my350z.com/forum/intake-exhaust/189946-x-pipe-or-h-pipe.html .

I have unresonated TPs and don't think the sound is "civicesque" at all. There is a bit of rasp I suppose, but it sounds more like an m3's mechanical sound than civic fart can... I would undoubtably recommend them. (APS 2.5 in) I suppose if I could eliminate the rasp I might...but a good resonated TP (labree) is going to run you $350+, vs. 100 or so for unresonated. So I suppose if money was no object id say go resonated, but I absolutly love my unresonated.

All that matters is that you are happy with what you have! I personally do not like the sound of unresonated TP and thats why I added the Mag. muffler. I just hope all turns out well cause it wont be as easy to go backwards if I dont like the sound!
