has anyone removed the resonator and use the stock muffler?
I'm just looking for someting a lil more agressive without being louder. And I hate fart cans. --------------------  -Rémy 02 SiR, 08 250R |

And I hate fart cans. I once removed the muffler itself and the car sounded damn good. I had to put it back on to pass emissions though. But while it was off it sounded good. Give it a try. |

I've done it. You're not going to notice much of a difference except it sounds a little more raspy when you let the RPM's drop in gear. My advice--save 20 or 30 bucks and don't get it done.

I know I had my muffler off once and it didn't sound much different... seemed like the resonator took most of the sound away... but i took the advice of people here and kept a resonator... I got the 2 1/4 in custom cat back with a res and a magna flow exhaust.. I love how it sounds. nice and deep... wish it was a little louder but I'm glad its not ricey..
