Arent you concerned about the smell if you do a no cat system??
I was but I miss it... I was catless on my rsx... I said I'd never do it again but screw it the power is addicting

I was always hesitant about deleting the resonators... The point of the resonators is to cancel out the annoying "Honda" frequencies... Curious to see how it sounds...some cars can get away without them

Keep the secondaries, they mitigate all the smell. Much lower power gains from removing them too.

hoping the intake, exhaust and powerbox will all compliment each other nicely!!!
congrats man! Can I ask - specifically - which Magnaflow exhaust system did you get? I'm shopping as well, same 08 128i
