Default When are you planning to do yours...i might take it into a local shop and see what they quote me for

custom fabing the pipe. If the price is right i might do it.

Default Dont do it...

I had my resonator removed from my Scorpion exhaust and it was simply too loud.. The droning sound just drove me nuts and I had to put it back in..

Don't do it unless you're unhappy with the decibel level of the SS

Default I don't think it would be too loud, lots of people with vw 1.8ts run straight pipes without mufflers

resonators or a cat and can deal with the sound, its all about what you prefer and can deal with.
