There is a noticeable difference. The sport cat is not as loud.

Hey Wassy,
Phil from Fabspeed here. I would be glad to help you out with this. I would keep the resonator on the M2. You can go with a cat bypass and muffler delete but if you bypass the entire system you will see some drone. Please feel free to reach out if you have a question.

Would you happen to know the diameter of the muffler bypass exhaust tips? Can't find any information about it online.

I have FS sport cat + Dinan res delete + Dinan free flow. I did one at a time and kept wanting more sound. This combo ended up being perfect and I'm really happy with it. Some drone as pointed out but doesn't bother me at all. Love the sound and it's not obnoxious when cruising so my neighbors don't think I'm a dbag. I can drop down to comfort and no burbles and then sport or sport+ with burbles = money. Love it.

Just purchased a Fabspeed muffler bypass from another member from the forums. I'll be pairing it to a VRSF downpipe. There doesn't seem to be any videos of the bypass with a catless downpipe so I'll try to post some videos once installed.

Thee only problem for me will be the cold start since I don't have a tune on the car and I don't like to annoy my neighbors. Otherwise, I think it will be fine for driving around. I would've preferred a full, valved catback system but this route is costing me under a grand all in so I'm willing to try it
