Question about my exhaust

i know what you mean i don't like the high rpms that much also ....but it better than waiting for someone to do it. that hardly happens here lol. but if some one does decide to do it and sounds better, I'm more than willing to put my mufflers back on and take out only the resonators. lmk if you see someone who has or will be doing it

thank you sir

Hey guys, I have 2013 GS 350 F sport. I recently removed the secondary cats and stock resonators. Everything else is stock. The car sounds good but I'm getting some raspiness at some RPM's. Do you think if I add on magnaflow resonators, the raspiness will be eliminated? If so, does anyone know what size resonators I would need?
