YOu shouldn't lose hp by removing your resignators. They're there to help quiet up the exhaust. Try to throw up a sound clip. Are you gonna be at "the pursuit"? I would like to hear the exhaust first hand. I haven't put my mids on yet.

Megan Midpipe works perfectly with the Tanabe exhaust. It comes with two resonators which fix that rasp you described.
