Midpipe first or axle-back first?

I just ordered the A'pexi midpipe (good deal at $123) because I want to keep the OE look and just give it a more robust sound. I also heard there is a drone with some axleback setups and that is something I would absolutely dread.

^^ That is teh route I would go if I did - I think the non resonated is the quieter of the two right? I want something subtle...

Resonated is slightly quieter (you can google decibel levels), that is the one I ordered.

If you want the v8 to sound right, get them both at the same time.
both at the same time is a lot of $$$...

This is true, but you'll want more.....trust me youll want more.
In all seriousness, I'm with you. I was able to find the midpipe i wanted second hand. Otherwise I would probably still only have the borla axleback
