Default rear cats delete?

Hey I have my Resonators out now and it sounds great. I was wondering if it sounds even better with the rear cats gone also. Does it get any deeper? I want more rumble. Don't want to sound like a ricer

In hot rod there was an article about a dude with a truck that got pulled over because the cop thought he heard a modification of the exhaust system. Its louder and here I have had NO issues even with the autocross monitors when I run. Woody You can feel the difference in power at the low end too. WW

This might help you. I took this video after i took the Rear Cats and Muffler off, so basically i just had it straight from the front cats. Since then i've put on an After Market Muffler on and it has more of a 350z type sound.

Me, no not really. There is a slight drone but I usually have the radio on so I can't hear it

Not bad at all FP. I had the magnaflow that I couldn't stand because of the drone. So the way I have it now is bearable and not annoying, especially on long drives.

Had a constant annonying drone on mine that was giving me a headache. I thought it was the Magnaflows. As it turned out it was my wife. Once she stopped riding in the Xfire the noise went away. Don't you say a word about this thread Kim

Maybe I am getting old but the removal of the rear cats resulted in drone and the car being a bit loud on the inside. Sounds fantastic out of the car but a bit much on the inside.

It is loud enough to draw attention but has gotten a bunch of compliments.
