Question Exhaust Question?

Had very noisy exhaust resonator, removed and installed strait pipe. Is there anything I should be concerned about by doing this? I can now drive at 40 mph @ 2000 rpm and not wake the neighborhood.

Re: Exhaust Question?

lol, no, nothing to worry about. I haven't had a resonator for a year or so and no issues. Mine sounded like there was a 1" ball bearing bouncing around inside.

Re: Exhaust Question?

I took mine out a couple of years ago because it buzzed so bad and haven't had any problems.
