Thread: Any power gains / KR reduction from removing the resonator?

For those that have removed/replaced your stock exhaust resonator, did you see any improvements? Did the exhaust get a lot louder?

I'd like to do anything that will help flow, but don't want it to be too loud.

Thanks!

Zero gains, just more rasp.

the only thing you will loose is your mind from the drone the car will have. if yours is going bad. rusting out, get a long glass pack and put it in its place.

Lost my sense of time, about it.

haha.. glad I made a post. mine has no issues at the moment, so I will leave it alone.

You want as quiet of an exhaust is possible...3800 sounds like poo anyways.

Catless headers, big resonator, non-chambered mufflers. weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.

Only good 3800 I ever heard https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w_OE3GLYac4. Otherwise best sounding exhaust for a stock cam IMO is the zzp resonator / muffler combo. Im not just humping zzps leg here either they really pissed me off the last few months.
