I'll assume that this is directed to me, since I posted the pictures?

If so, then yes, I've been very pleased with the stock non-cat manifolds and the Circuit Werks "resonators". Aside from the fact that all of the white insulation which was a part of the "resonator" portion of the Circuit Werks pipes was blown out after about the first 10 minutes of use, ending up in the muffler!

Fortunately I was able to fish out most of this insulation after removing the muffler - what I could not remove eventually blew out of the muffler's tips.

One difference between the older pictures that I posted and the car as it sits today is that I ceramic coated the manifolds, as you can see below:



The use of the non-cat OEM manifolds resulted in a notable performance boost as compared to the cat manifolds as shown in the second picture in Post no. 23, so I am well pleased.
