Ive heard that some people are just removing the resonator on the back of thier stock exhaust on a 1.8t and it sounds and flows better...? Has anyone done this or reccomend it ?

 

I have The Same Question.. My Only Worry Would Be that if there is Any O2 Sensors it could Cause a problem? Maybe Not..

 

i dont think their is any 02 Sensors back thier, but also dont know if it would throw off anything.... probably not since it just designed to tone the exhaust sound down more... right?

 

well i did mine but i did the muffler as well. You will get a bit of droning with stock muffler but thing is resonator has a 90 degree bend on the stock exhaust system so it is a huge bottle neck. The rest on the exhaust i think comes with like about 40 degree bend on the 3 inch downpipe so the rest is very good. Well if you throw a high flow cat in as well.
I highly recommend taking it out, and get a new muffler while you at it as well. you have to be cutting and welding, so what i did is i picked up a magnaflow street, and just got my shop to cut the pipes in the centre of the car and just throw away everything starting just before the resonator. then just got a new stainless steel pipe leading straight into the mufler. The piping came to about 100 so its not bad. I recommend Noyz Boyz, great exhaust shop
