Resonated tips

I had my marauder on the lift for the first time yesterday. I discovered the previous owner had magnaflow mufflers installed on the factory exhaust. If I remove the factory resonated tips and install stainless tips I can make at work, will it make the car any louder?

resonators or non resonated tend to change to he tone of it..removing 2nd set of cats can make it a little louder I 've read here.

Same setup that I have. I want to try some nonresonated tips but not ready to pay $200+ for some 4" tips and etc...

I believe there's a way to remove the resonators from the OEM tips, could be an option.

Yup. I did it like 5 years ago. Cut em off, pound it out, reweld. Too easy.

I was lazy and paid the exhaust shop to do it for once. Cost me like $35-40 bucks and took 20 minutes. Yes, easy.

Might want to try the deletion of the rear cats first. I wanted the same thing, more noise, so when I got lucky and my rear cats fell off...:rolleyes:...it brought it up enuff then the added tune brought it to @95% of where I want the rumble to be...

+1 My car has seen many different exhaust systems and the very best bang for the buck sound wise was simply ditching the rear cats early on. Sounded even better with Flowmaster's.

Gotta say Bob. Removing the rear cats made such a huge difference. Another best bang for your buck.

I have stock exhaust with the rear cats removed and the car sounds the way it should have been from the factory. A sawzall, 4 exhaust clamps, and some exhaust tubing....~$40, and its done. I did have to get one cut welded($20) because it was crooked...just be really careful to cut it as straight as possible(when your on your back under the car, it looked straight to me:D)
 
Mine has rear cats removed with magnaflows, but I wouldn't mind if it was a tad bit louder

I have been considering installing shorty headers .removing stock cats as an assembly then install single high flow cat on each side and retain rest of stock exhaust. Has anyone out here done something like this? I want to end up with free flow exhaust with little increase in noise level. thanks

Does anyone know off-hand what the stock exhaust diameter is and the length if I were to delete the cats? Ill just cut the pipe at work when I cut the tips.

I've had two muffler shops refuse to remove the rear cats. Will some muffler shops do it and some won't? I'd rather have someone weld it up right.
