Does anyone have a Supersprint resonator delete pipe with a JCW exhaust?
Is it alot louder or slighty louder than the JCW exhaust?
Any videos?

The price must have went up. It was on sale before for $130.00. I guess the sale is over. They need to update their site.

I was thinking of buying this. Do you guys think this will cause a CEL to go off??
Also I wonder if it will be slightly louder. If it is then I will buy it. I don't want anything too loud, or to cause a CEL.

I didn't buy a Supersprint but from another vendor. Based on that experience, my recommendation would be to go to a decent muffler shop and get them to cut the resonator out and replace it with a straight piece of pipe. The one I bought was supposed to be a cut and clamp arrangement which I thought would avoid a trip to the muffler shop. The clamps didn't adequately seal the exhaust so I still went to a muffler shop to get it welded. IMHO it may be cheaper and less trouble to go to a muffler shop to start with.

Yes, I saw that too. They need a new or better admin person updating the website prices.

This is a good suggestion/option, I have my cat-back set up this way.

When I want quiet I use the resonator, I bolt on the straight pipe for a little extra noise. Not sure it adds any power.
