alright so i have stock exhaust. im thinking about getting rid of the resonator and replacing it with a manual cutout. i was wondering if when the cutout is closed will my exhaust have a nice rumbled to it? or will it sound loud and raspy? thanks

 

When the cutout is open you'll have a loud exhaust note. When it's closed it'll be louded than stock. As far as the cutout, I'd put it between the rear lateral arms so it doesn't get hit on bumps and such.

 

You should've came out and heard mine. I'll be at AutoX the 22nd, too.

 

it will be raspy without the resonator and a little bit louder than stock with the cutout closed

 

yeah everyone was telling me i missed you and that your car sounded amazing. where you running with just cutout open? no cat?

yeah i will be going to that, my mom might be getting a mini cooper so hopefully she gets it before that so i can take it and tear that track up lol. if not ill bring gxp.

 

My cutout stays open just enough to let exhaust flow through, it's rarely more than 10% open unless I'm showing off, drowning out rap, or showing trucks theirs are quiet. I've a vid to post when I get home, granted it's catless and with MagnaFlows, yours will be a bit quieter.

I don't think she'd appreciate that, lol.

My car may be ugly, depending on who you ask, but it sounds good.

 

I still can't wait to get the rev limiter off in my car

Can't really tell how loud it is, lol.

 

what did you do to the steering wheel? i just figured gxp miller would like to hear kinda what it sounds like with the cutout

 

Took the metal cap off, I kinda bent/dented it on accident when some idiot decided to pull out in front of me.

And he'll hear it soon.

 

Were you ok? The car sounds great JP

 

Yeah, I just hit it weird while honking the horn, lol. People always pull out in front of me, and if they ever say, "I didn't see you," I'll say, "Well, I know you heard me."

And thanks.

 

haha nice

 

Right now I'm running the magnaflow cat back system, and bringing it in the shop today to get the resonator deleted as well. You guys suggest getting a cat delete too? I would like my car to be a little on the loud side, but not obnoxious

 

i had the mufflers cut off of mine with 3.5 inch tips sounds great loud but not too loud

 

I've been wanting to do the same thing as well. I'm still running the stock exhaust w/Doug Thorleys and no cat, I have a 3" cut just laying in my garage but havent bought the electric door for it yet. I want to delete the res for a little better tone, but I'm afraid it might sound worse.
