Make sure that your Midas shop uses stainless pipe and nickel or stainless rod, or you're going to have a rusted out exhaust stsyem in no time. Most shops I've talked to use alumanized pipe and mild steel rod, not even mig or tig welded

ZZP has a 3" downpipe with a magnaflow hi flow cat which is what I'm going to order. I plan on taking the Monte to my local Midas and have them replace the resonator with a section ofexhaust pipe.
Let us know how that turns out. I'd get my resonator removed if I knew it wouldn't create too much drone in the cabin.

x10, I went through about 3 different exhaust setups on my monte because of this. When I do my swap's exhaust, its getting all stainless- that should last longer than the vehicle.

I'm in the same boat. I like a quiet cabin for when I go cross country...800+ miles. The drone gets on your nerves quickly.

My SLP cat seems to quiet it down quite a bit compared to the RealTek one I had though.

No drone at all. I'm 46 andthe wife is 47 so if it was annoying she wouldpitch afit (Believe me she would). I drive 55 miles 1 way and can listen to the radiolow. When she is in the car I can listen toher talking at a normal level and still hear the radio.But outside from behind the car it sounds sweet! Sorry for the late response but I've been tied up concentrating on the other mods.
