Hey all, Looking into getting either a Miltek cat-back or full system (prices differ slightly lol). I was just wondering what you guys/gals prefer - Resonated or non-resonated exhausts? There is plenty of video's on youtube, but to be honest, the sound quality isnt all that and some sound very similar! I want a decent sound but don't want to end up sounding like the chavs round the corner with the big bore Corsa

My friend Mikey had the resonated one on his ST and it was nice and subtle and didnt have the wet fart rasp of a non resonated one. If it had been around when I got mine, I would have had the resonated one.

then you could redline on circuits 
i will be getting the resonated one when i finally get round to saving up for one as i dont want a huge amount of noise
