Default Muffler or Resonator DELETE!

Just wanted to know if anyone has done this? I am debating on doing this but has not seen or heard anyone with this setup.

i've done it, i plan on getting an axle back soon, but due to CA emission i didn't go with a full midpipe. currently it does sound a little bit louder without the resonators but quiet while cruising. cheap and easy mod for a little bit of noise.

Is there any drone or rasp? I'm planning to either do the res delete or muffler delete but not both. From what I can see and hear, the axle back systems on our car is a lot of money for very little to minimal diff in sound.

No drone at all. It's actually sounds pretty good considering it's just a resonator delete.

Is there a noticeable diff? With no drone, is there still a deep sound or raspy like a civic?

no drone at all and its not raspy, if you search the forums you'll find a video of someone who did the resonator delete with stock mufflers, i remember seeing that and then doing the mod after i saw it.

Go to any muffler shop and have them remove it for you. Should cost between $40-$100

Theres not really a drone but there is a deep exhaust note in the lower rpms. And it definitely doesn't have a raspy sound. If you plan on doing it i suggest you delete the resonators and get an X pipe put in instead. It will make the car sound real nice and it'll give you much higher air flow. If you want me to record a video just let me know, ill post one up if you need it.
