I know you said its louder, but does it increase the drone in the car or just the overall noise. Anyone else remove the resonator and have a tanabe that can comment on the sound or post a sound clip?

What I thought was going to be loud, was the HKS hi-power cat-back exhaust, even though a lot a people say are the loudest, I am disappointed because it was not that loud at all, while it does make a difference, it is only at low RPM's (about 1,500-2500) that I can really feel it, this is probably what most people call "drone sound" and I kind of enjoy that bass feel/sound mainly perhaps because I drive short trips in the city and not much highway.

Any advise would be helpfull, especially if you have the same set-up thanks in advance, I may do it today.
Get a mid pipe and you will hear the exhaust all the way through RPM's. I have the megan mid pipe and greddy se exhaust and love the sound

I was considering getting the midpipes, but by just deleting the resonator, I got the sound that I was looking for.
