LS3 - Magnaflow resonated X vs Stock resonators?
Seeking opinions for next exhaust mod as I have a few options.
NPP mufflers are next, but looking to modify the mid section. I don’t mind my current setup, but certainly looking for a little more volume and tone. Is it worth replacing factory resonators with magnaflow resonated X? Also thought about swapping H for Tru X while leaving factory resonators. See below and talk me into an option listed. Also need everything to make the NPP functional. Would like to control it. Mild2wild, forza. Which is easier? Current setup: 2015 LS3/6spd Kooks LT/HFC Factory H Factory resonators “jerry can” mufflers Option 1 LT/HFC Factory H Factory resonators NPP Mufflers Option 2 LT/HFC Magnaflow TRU X Factory resonators NPP axle-back Option 3 LT/HFC Magnaflow resonated X (Remove Factory resonators) NPP Mufflers Option 4 (might be too loud/drone?) LT/HFC Magnaflow TRU X NO Resonators NPP Mufflers Thanks All!

I did the resonated x pipe on my last set up. It had good base but killed volume. I think the tru x option 3 is the best.

I have long tubes, no cats, x pipe, npp stuck open and a cammed motor. I like how the npp idles a lot louder than my borla s type so i could hear the cam idle more and the sound of the npp is the best sound in my opinion. It is pretty loud full throttle but i bet with high flow cats it would tone it down just a bit and sound great. I say get most open mid section you can and with the cats and functioning npp it wouldn't be overwhelmingly loud with it open and plenty quiet with the mufflers closed.

May not be much help, but with shorty headers, hiflows and outlaw axleback, the resonated x pipe killed volume by about 30%, but did not help with the bad drone of the outlaws. Only adding j pipes did the drone get eliminated
