Resonator delete
I am thinking of removing the resonator before the mufflers. Will this make it any louder/deeper?? I know I need to put an X pipe/crossover in place.

It will drone more if you remove it. Ted at Jannetty told me that they have seen no gains by removing it, long tubes made mine sound more rowdy at idle, but no drone on the highway. I have the GMPP axle back.

Honestly - resonator deletes sounds like crap...
It never really works out the way people want. Just buy an exhaust. Not only does it sound good, but you pick up power with reduced bottlenecks! |
