Default Deleting resonator?

I have an is250 2009 AWD. My current exhaust setup is i have had the stock mufflers replaced with Magnaflow mufflers and tips. Sound isn't too noticeable until the 2k-3k range where it gets pretty loud in the cabin and sounds good but not too loud on the outside. Anyone have the same setup and also have the resonator deleted? If so, how is the sound and cabin noise? Im trying to go louder(deeper) without increasing cabin noise.

Hi!

Removing the resonator is the ''easy way out'' to reach a deeper exhaust sound, but keep in mind that it will also affect your interior confort lol, it's loud and it resonates a lot more. Makes a huge drone also. If you're trying to go louder without increasing cabin noise, it's definitively not the best thing to do.

Some people loved it, some hated it. On my part, I decided to shop for a F-SPORT axleback exhaust and keep the rest stock. Beside the HKS high-power, it's the deepest axleback on the market.

I'm sure Youtube has a lot of videos with Magnaflow + resonator delete but as I said, expect cabin noise + drone.

EDIT : 5 seconds on YT and voilà :
