Cheap resonator/suitcase delete?
« on: January 02, 2017, 11:54:34 pm »
Hi guys, can't afford a cat back at the minute and the car will be going into the garage to get my rev g dv, springs and pre-cat delete so which should I delete, the suitcase or the resonator and what diameter pipe do I need to tell the garage to get and can I get new tips for my crappy standard ones?

I don't want it loud or drony, just a bit better sounding :signLOL:

I was in same boat as you, did the resonater delete and Droned like crazy on motorways! Luckily I managed to swap it out for someone who preferred the loudness of it so didn't lose out on much.

So you'd get rid of the suitcase then?

No... He got rid of the resonator/Mid box.

I think the suitcase delete will be too loud tbh.
Just save for a 3inch downpipe. after all, the res delete, catback and suitcase delete are all noise makers, no performance.

resonator delete will be louder than a suitcase (backbox) delete.

Call up EMP Performance, they are in St Albans, They did the res delete for me

Do they do all the parts delivered and how much roughly, basically it's just a bit of pipe so shouybe expensive.
Also getting rid of the suitcase must be a decent weight loss  :signLOL:

They dont sell the pipes, they custom make them for you and weld it in place of the exhaust.
