I think it's the stock muffler - it's tuned for the OEM midsection. My car sounds a little "off" with the fabspeed resonated xpipe and the stock muffler at low speeds and high load. The thing sounds absolutely amazing at 4k plus though.
I would guess you get similar, but not identical, sound with all the aftermarket xpipes.
Thanks for posting this for the forum!

I think you're right about X-pipes sounding similar, although I'm guessing the pipes without resonators all add a few more dBs. Mine also has a nice snarl starting around 4,000 rpm. Unless I'm shifting or on the gas, I hardly notice a difference from stock at lower rpm.
