Resonator delete, finally!!!

SteveInfante · 07-27-2017, 10:52 AM

I'm getting my resonator delete done today after work. Custom muffler set-up is next. I really just want a little more out of the exhaust. This should do for now.

Cold starts are pretty loud for the first ~2 minutes or so...also have an MPE.

With the stock exhaust and DP it's a lot deeper. I have the exhaust flap open all the time. I think there's a little more butt dyno HP. At least a little more throttle response. There's a slight burble on deceleration which is what I was looking for.

The exhaust guy asked if I had a V8 in my car because I had stock 3" piping. Ha ha. $30 well spent. Video tomorrow.

Looking forward to the video. Also, do you notice any droning at highway speeds?

No droning. Actually I think it's a little quieter in the car except under acceleration.

Here's a quick video I did when I pulled into my garage after commuting from work from in the car.

Start up and revs.

crabu2 · 08-01-2017, 09:22 PM

Is that a cold start or was the engine already warmed up?

It was already warmed up. I had just gotten home from my work commute. And hour of not much traffic, country roads, and XM Classic Vinyl.
