Cutting off exhaust resonators??? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

If I cut off my exhaust resonators, other than making it loud would it sound deeper and have more of a growl? And would it reduce any in cabin drone?

I have a SLP Loudmouth 2 exhaust.

It will make any in cabin drone much worse.
The main purpose for a resonator, is to reduce in cabin drone.

cabin drone can be good if your passenger has an annoying voice.

Your check engine light will always stay on, O2 sensors.

I removed my resanators to get more sweet sound from my American Thunder.

I enjoy the drone also..
Removing resanators will not throw a fault/check engine light.

I did cut mine out. i am running a pypes axle back with home made j pipes and i have no drone and love the added sound. I just replaced resonators with staight sections of pipe.
