Question Need help with exhaust

Hey CL,
So i just bought a HKS Hi Power today from a guy down the street. All i got was the axle back. He kept the other half which i think is the "B" pipe or mid pipe, not sure what it's called . I don't really know much about the different pieces. It sounds good and mild. I was wondering how i can make it a little more louder while keeping the deep tone. Would I need to get the B pipe? take the resonator off my stock?. Any help would be awesome. I have a Injen intake which im switching to a K&N, other than that it's stock.

the HKS Hi Power is just an axle back system if you add a b pipe it would increase the sound. you can bring it to a muffler shop and have them do a custom pipe to remove the resonator which would produce more sound output

Mid pipe and Bpipe is one and the same.

You can do many things to produce the deep GRRR. Removing the resonator, or removing the cats. Those 2 things will do the trick
