i think if you put the resonator on it might reduce the loudness...anyone please correct if im wrong.

good to know... I am doing my exhaust in the next few days and most people say leave the resonator in to keep it from being outrageoulsy loud....

I'll let you know what my setup sounds like when i get done...

stock header, downpipe and cat, mandrel bent 2.25" back with 2.25" resonator, and Magna Flow Muffler.

PUT your resonator back in

i love my megan exhaust! no cat, no resonator, 3sgte, and 3" pipe!!! i cant get enough of it ....especially through some tunnels!
go back to stock if you dont like the sound of it.... i have gotten a ton of compliments on the sound of my car and could not be happier with it. my girlfriend has a megan cat back on a wrx and it is bad ass too!
hint:
put your cat and the resonator back on if you want a car that sounds like a peice of poop getting dragged down the road by a garbage truck!
p.s. why did you buy a straight through muffler setup , if you did not want it to be loud?

lol dg you exaggerate

your gf has a resonator in her cat back as well >>

resonator = no canny rice sound and quieter thats all

i might streatch the truth a little:),
but you are right! she got a resonator(i forgot)... but both of our cars sound good! but they are not too loud.... she got the typical scooby sound and i got a nice deep tone with no resonator!
that is my point!!

Leave the cat out and have a centre box put in, thats what my st was running & got load of comments from different garages on how good it sounded!

ok i think ill get a resonator do exuast shops carry them or do i have to order one?

Definitely get a resonator back on. I had a similar experience when getting a new custom catback. Then, the muffler shop (Big Al's) put a resonator back on...so yeah, they should be able to hook you up.
