Default SC430 -- Exhaust clips -- "Muffler Delete"

I had a few people ask me for more videos, so here they are.

I have S & S headers, stock cats, stock resonators, and 2.25 piping from there all the way back.

Muffler has been removed

Thanks for the clips!

It sounds better then usual, I think your headers smooth out the sounds to make it sounds better.

I didn't want to start a new thread, so I'll ask here.

Does anyone have sound clips of stock resonator and muffler deleted? I took my resonators out and it sounds pretty good, but I want it a bit louder. Just wanted to see if t would sound good with both out.

Dunno if you're directing this at the OP or me, but its not that loud w/o the resonators. It gives it a nice growl. You can definitely drive a few hours without being annoyed.

That'd be interesting to hear. Is everything else stock on yours besides the resonator deleted?
