magnaflow resonated x pipe removed from Outlaw axelback

Today removed the Resonated X pipe to try and get my Outlaw sound back without to much popping and cold start loudness.The H pipe went back in, no stock resonators so I have what amounts to a 2.5" Outlaw catback, H pipe instead of the scavanger x Flowmaster uses.Well it sounds GREAT! No longer muffled, sounds like it should, decel popping more and louder, but not alot, not bad,alot less then I though as it seemed louder before I put in the x pipe
Sounds like the Outlaw catback should now.It is louder but in a good way, just right and the J pipes still take care of the drone. I thought I would need the stock resonators to help control the bad sounds but not needed in my view.They may help but I like it just the way it is.

Overall perfect!

Any sound clips? How does it compare to Borla Atak. I've narrowed it down to outlaw or atak but cant decide.

No clips. I have one I did of the old setup and when I do this one I'll get them both up as a before after compare. Borla sounds good but this one more muscle car and deeper maybe, less raspy sounding. I wanted this sound and not the higher pitched Europeon sound with the x pipes. Look for the thread here maybe 2 pages back for the outlaw catback setup, forgot the name. There is a vid of that.This sounds about the same but I havent driven much yet to compare.Difference maybe that one a bit deeper due to the 3" pipes.This one just sounds mean
