I currently have 2 resonators removed and no mufflers on my gs430. I really really miss the sound of my gs400.. It had all resonators and mufflers removed and replaced with 3 inch straight pipes running out the back. The thing is, with my gs400 I lost a good amount of torque... You could really feel it... It was just loud and slow from a start. Will this happen if I remove the third resonator on my gs430 or did my gs400 just lose low end torque from the 3 inch pipes?

it was the straight pipes you were feeling.

the resonators' effect on torque is much slighter.

i have no exhaust after the cats at all, no piping or anything. yes i only have one 02 sensor on one of the banks. I do notice this problem sometimes but i also do feel quite a bit more torque at times as well.

Thanks! That's what I was thinking, the size of the straight pipes right?

Lol ghetto... But it's okay your car looks so sick noone would realize that u don't got an exhaust. It sounded really good in your little rain drift video. How's the drone? Can you smell the gas?

the diameter, yeah.

I can't find the thread. My 430 doesn't have a third resonator? It's a cat? And if I remove it what will happen?.

Electronics wise, nothing will happen if you remove it as all of the O2 sensors are upstream of it, along with the main cats. As for tone or performance, no clue.
