Official Resonator Delete Thread

[raiderjatt02]

Going on 3500 miles since removal and I have NO RAGRETS. Zero. It's how the car should have came from the factory but I understand they needed to differentiate the sound from the Rs. I'm happy as hell that it was such an easy mod.

What's balattines the sound when you decelerate it?

No. It's during acceleration right at 3500 when it starts to make torque. I wasn't sure exactly how to describe it. However, I think I will retract my statement. Since I'd never actually heard my car from the outside I had my son drive it down the street yesterday while I stood on the shoulder. I didn't realize how awesome it sounds, and looks, going down the road.

Love it! My wife isn't sold though, and frankly...she looks hot in the car. If it is too loud she might not ride with me. Hah hah

I didn't know this thread existed..Yes I did mine back in the spring and it sounded better. I've thought lately though that I could use more volume haha..

Is our factory system stainless? I believe it is. Are you replacing with stainless pipes and are they using stainless welding? I have seen places use aluminium pipe or stainless pipe and still use the same old welds which rust.

My bad. Need to pay attention to what category I'm posting in..

Are most of you guys leaving the heat shield off?

Here's what it looks like with the heat shield wrap on the cats.

The shop doing my resonators delete is telling me that the OD of the pipe coming out of the Xpipe is different than the OD of the pipe that continues after the resonators. Thus he needs a pipe with 2 different OD s at the ends to slip over after he cuts out the resonator. Does this seem correct or is he somehow confused ?

Obviously it would be bad if he just butt welded the pipe. I guess the problem is he doesn't have the appropriate machine to flange the SS pipe bc it's so hard.

Yes there are restrictors on both sides of the X that go down to 2.32" the X is 2.5" and the rest of the exhaust is 2.75" when I deleted my resonators I also put in a new X
