Thinking about Removing the Resonator

Has anyone thinking about removing the resonator and see how it sounds? I love the stock G37 exhaust, I just want it to be a little bit louder. Has anyone done this on a G35 before? If so, how was it ?
Thanks

Yeah, more so because it's a DIY mod that someone can do fairly easily (hopefully) than paying for work to be done

You really wont know unless you do it....for instance some exhaust for M3's make it more raspy and some less...even with the rasp-x eliminators they put on them.

I myself enjoy the sound of my friends M3 which and he has a full exhaust + the rasp eliminator which provides just about the same amount of rasp as stock when it is pair up to a full exhaust system...so maybe some prefer slightly more rasp over growl and visa versa.
