I guess just take it down to your local Exhaust Workshop, you'll get heaps of drone without it tho mate!

I'm thinking of doing this after I get some headers fitted. I reckon it would have to sound very slightly different with the headers.. I've already got 2.5" system, and replaced the mid muffler for RWC with a Redback straight thru offset one, but she's still quiet as a mouse!

You contradicted yourself. If ya remove the resinator it will sound like a Commodore, not better. If you want it to sound better get a full system.

Prolly tru aye... that raspy, tinny sound.. 3.0L RB30 Nissan in a VL , or the first gen 3.8's in a VN. I think we're after a warm burble, and slightly bassy note, without max drone.
I may even consider removing my new redback offset straight thru for some glass pack muffler, if I get that undesirable result when I remove mine.. See what happens, the redback might not be bad at all. |
