Default Resonator Delete (VIDEO/REVIEW)

I was curious to how it sounds. Most videos I found were filmed with potatoes or had other exhaust bits done. Had a shop do it for me. COMPLETELY STOCK EXHAUST. RESONATOR REPLACED WITH REGULAR EXHAUST TUBING.





So it is raspy. I'm a ricer at heart and like the rasp. I really like the crackling and pops it makes but they aren't noticeable when driving, more so when you are revving like in this video. The rasp goes away after the exhaust has warmed up. At this point it sounds like the OEM exhaust with a bit more aggressive attitude. I have not noticed any drone when cruising around town or on the highway.

Did not notice the slightest change in power at all. It shouldn't have anyway unless the delete was done by a shade tree.


Is it worth it? To some maybe. It has kinda calmed me down while I still try to find out what exhaust I want.

I did this for a week, sounds nice at first. But good lord I figured out I absolutely hate rasp. I lost power, not sure how you don't feel it. On the low end car was lagging and was not smooth switching gears at all. Revving the car it backfired and was embarrassing. If removing that little resonator made the car drive like **** I could imagine adding a True Dual exhaust and really opening up the system would do. I've done everything to my car wheels, brakes, bodykit, audio system but still hesitant changing the exhaust.
