resignator delete

[12blkms3]

I'm looking to get a little more sound from my exhaust without spending 1k I've listened to a few resignator delete sound clips and I like it!
I'm not going to mod anytime soon, is this going to require a fp upgrade???
I have a 2012 speed... Thanks in advance

[helmetface]

lol

whos gunna say it?

[Voltron]

hmmmm.....today, I'll be nice.

The resonator, is only there to quiet down the exhaust, and for no other reason. Removing this will not require any other mods.

But, I'll sit back and watch this one lol.

[castrocastro]

I never knew our cars even came with a resignator..

[Voltron]

Only on the Type R version son.

Yea I figured id get flamed for this one! Its all good though
Is the the resignator bolted on or welded??? Not trying to be lazy here but I broke my foot a couple days ago, so its a little difficult! Lol

[Voltron]

Quick question. You know where the search button is right?
Man, I better get some heaven points for this one.



It is welded in.

[aggierandy]

The resonator is a part of the exhaust piping. It will need to be cut out. Go to a reputable muffler shop and have it done. Had mine done and it cost me all of $15. Shop around.

Think of it like a tuning fork or the bell of a horn. Just adjusts the sound.

That said, two seconds of searching would have found you all of this information. Search Brownie!
And Donate!

Search button??? Really???
Actually I'm unable to use it, whenever I get ready to type it closes back up!
Stupid phone!!! And I was planning to swing by an exhaust shop after work, so I figured id ask!

[ASHMS3]

LOL, I don't think a search for a "resignator" would have returned good results. RESONATOR is the word your looking for. And yeah, you can have any muffler shop cut it out and replace it with straight pipe. The resignator is the block window mod, where your motor resigns from it's position as properly functioning.

He must be a resignator. Therefore he should resign.

And for what it is worth, reso delete, while posted ad nauseum in multiple threads here, is, to me a ricer mod. No power gain whatsoever by deleting them and just more loud. Loud does not = powerful. And loud four bangers sound more like farm tractors than anything else.

The most potent cars you can purchase at any price typically have amazingly quiet exhausts, even under full throttle due to proper use of . . . resonators.

One could have also looked under the car..damn youre lazy!

Arguably the most successful aftermarket muffler company is magnaflow and their exhausts are significantly louder than stock. Powerful cars are loud. Look at dragsters. Generally speaking, people interested in a powerful car like loud exhausts and the associations they have with the power. I.e. racecars

Furthermore a full exhaust for our cars costs hundreds of dollars. The performance gains are marginal at best. So, the primary purpose is the sound. For $15, you can get a "better" sound versus spending hundreds. You say ricer, I say cheaper.

ALMOST as lazy as someone who posts on a thread without reading it

Went to three shops, cheapest was $45!!! Seems a bit pricey, I'm going shop around though...

[ASHMS3]

45 seems pretty legit. I haven't done it, but I think most people pay around 60.

[aggierandy]

45 is high. My shop did it for $15. The competitors asked $25. Shop it.

I got my resonators and muffler deleted for $35

Sent from my 3VO bitches.

[Voltron]

That's pretty fucking cheap. Mieneke round my way told me its a custom job, and 120 bucks. I laughed in his stupid ass face. Cheapest I've heard around here is 60.

[zedekias]

Surprised no one has said it yet. But to have a noticeable sound difference you're going to need a race/test pipe or downpipe. If you just cut out the resonator you won't hear a whole lot.

And if you go the downpipe route, you need fuel pump internals.

[SpdDemon89]

Dude you need to look into getting a race test pipe. then while you under there cut out the resonator and put in straight pipe.

Be a man and lay the pipe!!!

[Dash08]

You guys have it all wrong.

The OP is resigning from nator.

$20 cash for mine. Go to a mom-n-pop muffler shop.

[zkrick]

[MSMS3]

I ADDED a redo! No power loss at all. If you ever go 3 inch catless dp/rp as I did, you will learn what loud and droning is like. Reso add as in my sig killed the drone and I can enjoy the huge power bump of a good catless dp and rp.

Btw the WOT in cabin noise level of 550 horse Lambroghinis, Porsche 911 turbos, Nissan GT-R, etc. is not significantly more than a STOCK MS3, all well under 90 db.

We are not driving top fuel dragsters with individual exhaust header pipes for each cylinder and belching nitromethane flames.

Short of that, loud is not power. Enjoy more noise if you like that. My Kubota 5 cylinder diesel farm tractor at WOT sounds obnoxious but better than an open piped four banger. Just slap a fart can on the end and a Honda label and you are set.

My buddy's old 87 rx-7 with a 4" titanium exhaust was the worst sounding car I've ever been in. after about a minute I was nearly deaf and ready to jump out.

Where did you go bro, i paid 30 to get one res removed, i want to get the other one and the muffler removed, hook a brotha up!

[EnergyVR]

I also paid $35 for a res delete. Sounds a little deeper and pops from time to time, by the feel of the car i prolly gained 30+hp w/ this mod
