F25 N55 X3 Resonator Delete
Anyone one have personal experience removing the resonator? saw some videos of N55 335i making some insane pops and burbals. Anyone have a similar outcome with an X3? What was the cost just to have the resonator removed?

Resonatoer Delete
I had both of my resonators' removed. Went to a custom muffler shop I used in the past with my Rover and M Class. Had them cut out and welded in a straight pipe. Big difference in sound for the positive. A little bit of a 'drone' at highway speeds, but nothing you cannot live with.

Here’s one you can bolt on and if you don’t like it you can switch it back.

How about only muffler delete ?
I am looking for more sound, but not too loud. Both resonator delete seems a lot ? I was looking at 2 options; 1st option (cheapest one) Muffler delete 2nd option (custom quad exhaust) 1 resonator delete What you guy's think ? |

From my newfound discoveries: Leave the stock resonator to prevent drone, install a VRSF catless downpipe and get a quad exhaust (Remus or super sprint).
I installed a Catless dp last weekend and the exhaust is much throatier and only a bit louder. I'd imagine that a quad exhaust would help project the new throatier noise.

Prior to getting Remus, I was going to do a muffler delete and have custom dual vibrant ultra quiet resonators in place of the muffler with custom quad tips. Keep the resonator. |
