Resonator delete? Sound with stock muffler?

Has anyone tried the stock system without a resonator?

I have been running Berk's muffler delete for ~300 miles and it sounds great,

I imagine the resonator being removed would add more in cab resonance but that is truly an uneducated WAG...

Try it please and report

Likely a bit more rasp. Resonators usually drown the high frequencies, so I wouldn't expect too much additional roar

this looks interesting... like the old hype in the R56 JCW MINIs, everyone wanted to know what a catless downpipe on a JCW stock catback would sound like...

and like that i wanna know what the stock system can sound like with little tweaks! any pics/videos of your little setup?

I don't think he's done it yet, but, if I DO get my car next Friday, there is a good chance I'll have done it the following DAY.

Having trouble finding someone with SS everyone tells me galvanized pipe is all they have. I ordered the nameless axle back probably, gonna delete resonator with that so people hate me. Going to buy my own pipe and have my buddy whos a pipe fitter weld it. What i would do for a lift at my house.
