Default PPE Exhaust Question

Thinking about ordering new PPE exhaust but was wondering about their option to have no resonators in it. I am currently running Joe Z/PPE headers with no cats. If I had them do no resonators is it going to be raspy as hell and sound terrible or would it have very unique sound and more of an exotic sound?

@Defratos, I like to switch up the sound of my car. Was hoping to get a good audio clip of the PPE exhaust with headers before I buy it but no clips are available. I'm hoping the PPE is a little louder and more exotic sounding but not as loud as ISS QES system. The more I think about it though I really don't want to buy an exhaust with no audio clip.

i wouldn't buy anything without at least an audio clip. the Joe Z is a quality unit, i have it and personally wouldn't want to switch it out. the quality is evident, from the pics of the PPE i've seen on here i wasn't super impressed.

We will get some videos of the exhaust on the road with headers on. This will give a good idea of how it sounds on the street vs idle and revving. There really is a large difference between the open and closed on the valves.

No rasp in either setting with our headers, cats and resonators.

I'll try and get something to post late next week.
