Resonator delete

samlc7 · 10-20-2017, 01:15 AM

Hi gang,
I’d like just a little more punch without spending a lot of dough, so the resonator delete sounds interesting. Anybody have experience with resonator delete with the stock exhaust?
Thanks,
Sam

I've done it on my M235i, would recommend.

Removing the resonator adds decibels, not punch.

Check Dinan resonator delete sound video.

It can give you an idea how it would sound with stock muffler.

Thanks folks.

So I have seen the Dinan video, which was what led me here. Maybe I don't have a very discerning ear, but it really kind of sounded the same.

So basically, assume same characteristics, but a little louder. Yes?

Correct. Online vids, IMO, don't portray actual exhaust sounds. Gotta hear them in real life. That said, if you're going to go with the Dinan resonator delete, might as well get the free flow exhaust as well. It sounds terrific.
