I had the Mastermind Race installed (no cats/resonators) with the Akra Slip-On. This setup is loud

to be honest its probably going to sound bad.....no cats and no resonators on this car give a real shitty sound for the street.....im not a fan of the akra to begin with its too hallow/tingy for me but id probably go with a catless xpipe and 2-4 resonators if i were you

UPDATE: nevermind, just went on the site and the race has 2 resonators....you should be good but it will be loud (possibly raspy)....I know tightie had an akrapovic setup wiht gintani xpipe floating around on youtube ill look for it now
