Hey lewisracing. After your removed that resonator, do you experience backfire from your exhaust? When i'm using the Sport Shift and i'm in 1st or 2nd gear and I raise the rpms to say 3-5k and let off the gas, around 2k rpm, i hear a loud backfire. I looked at the straight pipes that they installed and the diameter of the pipe is smaller than the original size diameter. Would that cause the backfire? Anybody experience the backfire after removing the big resonator? Please help. Thanks so much.

heres the link to a couple videos that I made awhile ago, I used a normal camera to film it so I'm not sure what the crackling noise is.

Don't be so hard on yourself, its tough if you are working for a living and not playing video games for 8hrs/day. Apparently, it can be used in a full sentence too. "Dude, we just wiped in Hellfire ramparts, noob tank FTL."

I get backfire too on mine, I think it was always there but just not noticeable. In all honesty I think it sounds sweet, but maybe that's just because I'm a teenager.
