why do you want to do with dual 3" piping and delete your resonators? Do you know how loud and annoying your car would sound?

Well I wasnt certain about size etc or what was compatible. I would be installing it for sound and performance so im assumimg that its really loud with resenators deleted so I will leave them on, im going to be sinking alot of money into the car and just need some input on do's and dont's. So if anyone has any suggestions please let me know.
