Default resonator delete

does anybody have videos/sound clips of their b5 unresonated? I have a magnaflow muffler on my 2.8 now, with a nice tone, but its not quite loud enough. I want to cut the resonator out and splice straight pipe in there, but dont know how it will affect engine noise inside the cockpit, and outside with my straight-through muffler. I dont want it obnoxiously loud, but a deeper, racier tone than what i have now. My only concern is that resonater is so massive deleting it leaves only the cats on a straight through system. Any thoughts, ideas, suggestions?

It will be loud and as annoying as hell... I had it... search for my name and exhaust - I put a youtube clip up not too long ago. I ended up putting a $15 summit turbo muffler where the resonator used to be to quiet it down - while it's raspy as hell now I can have a conversation in my car.

nooooo it sounded terrible on my first car when the resonator was removed.... it straight up sounded like a honda, at mid-high rpm's it sounded like a buzzing be... i put a resonator back on and it hummed beautifully.


DONT DO IT, IT HONESTLY SOUNDS HORRIBLE.
