Resonator

Anyone have videos of resonator delete videos? perhaps before and after on an n52 engine?

does replacing your factory res with a vibrant change the sound?

does deleting your resonator cause power loss/gain and how does it improve the sound? any drone?

If you have a 335 sedan, and you delete the resonator and put an X pipe in its place you'll gain maybe 5 hp at most. The car will have a little more grumble at start up and say when you step on it or pass someone on a two lane road for example. It will give the exhaust a deeper sound.

There will be no drone, if you use a quality SS X-pipe.

On a E90 N52, there is literally zero difference on deleting the resonator much less swapping to another. I removed mine when it was all stock, and there was no change in sound/drone/anything whatsoever, except my wallet being lighter.
