ok, heres the deal. 2004 grand prix gtp comp g, the resonator looks like its splitting open from the sides. i can hear that there is a hole somewhere on the exhaust, and i think its coming from that. the whole system looks rusty, so i was thinking about getting a whole new system from the cat back, or if the cat looks really bad, then ill have to replace that also.
my question is, for the folks on here that has replaced their exhaust system, did you keep the resonator? or did you get rid of it. from what ive read its main purpose is to further ''muffle'' the sound. shut the car up.
i figured if im going to get a new system, i might as well get a bigger pipe and go loud, but not too loud, or fart can loud (i hate that)
so thats why im asking, if i ditch the resonator, will the car sound like a honda?
also,
with the stock exhaust system, the exhaust always comes out of both pipes. even when im pushing the gas, it doesnt seem to ever come out of one pipe, always two, which is a good thing. but my dad got a system on his silverado, and his exhaust always seems to favor one side. it doesnt happen every day, but its something i notice occasionally. is there a way to prevent this if i get a new system? is it better for me to go back to the O>E and have the dealer just ''replace'' the system i have, or go wider/custom. please let me know your opinion.
it might seem stupid, but the exhaust coming out of both pipes is a big deal to me, i hate how that looks! ive even had a friend behind me and ill call liek hey, is my exhaust coming out of both pipes? lol.
any help would be appreciated thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
