    Default Question for those who have removed the resonator

    I have a Remus muffler on my 540 and while it sounds louder than stock at idle, there is very little increased sound level at any other RPM range. I still have the stock cats and factory resonator. How would the sound change if I removed the factory resonator exactly? More noise under WOT, annoying sound all the time, etc? Opinions from those who have a similar setup would be greatley appreciated!

    Thanks,

    Ben

    louder than a freight train.

    conversion of CAT to straight pipe would make it sound cooler, but you wont pass emissions tests without water injection and combustion modifiers in the fuel (acetone, and even then it probably wont pass). or you could do an LPG conversion, pipe out the cats, and never worry about an emissions test ever.
