snmjim Posted August 8, 2018 Report Share Posted August 8, 2018 (edited) Give consideration to this Mod, especially if your going to run modified Turbos.If your an Ole school gear head like me you've had your fill of noisy performance and prefer sleeper power... Remove your resonator but keep it should you ever want to revert back.Have straight pipes installed in place of the resonator.Results:- No low or high end droning- Turbos breath better- Better power response- Does not affect emissions- Loss of 17.8 lbs - Gains of 1-2 miles per gallonSound sample: Thnx goes out to Special K for this one...

THE_BOLT Posted August 8, 2018 Report Share Posted August 8, 2018 You got my attention. But curious on the sound here. Are you saying it's still in sleeper mode? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the_edge_lord Posted October 18, 2018 Report Share Posted October 18, 2018 Hey, the video sounds fantastic. Did you end up pairing this with an aftermarket exhaust? I'm interested in the resonator delete, but I don't want the car to end up sounding like shit...especially if I pair it with the MRT exhaust, or something similar.

I'm interested in the resonator delete, but I don't want the car to end up sounding like shit...especially if I pair it with the MRT exhaust, or something similar. No, that was strictly just the removal of the resonator and leaving the remainder of the exhaust Sys stock... If you elect to remove the resonator and change the muffler I'd appreciate a review of the end result with sound sample and what muffler you went with... Reminder: if you elect to change out the muffler as well beware of highway cruising tone, with some mufflers it can be very obnoxious after a while. We operate by the concept of "value added for effort & capital expended" therefore on that note why change the muffler when we had it verified that the stock muffler isn't creating any significant restrictions and flows quit well for stock???
