Should I remove the resonators off my Greddy

Im thinking of going with the exhaust depot y pipe and was considering removing the resonators. The car gets driven 2 times a week if that and wanted a more exotic sound

Resonators are put there for a reason... they go with the system the was it was designed to be.... taking them off may yield an hp or 2 maybe... but it will increase the loudness and tone of the exhaust and may be nice for a day or two but then it will get old... this was one reason I got rid of the borla is because it didnt have resonators and was just to loud and a lil raspy at the high rpm range...

unless ur G is a pure race car id say leave em

Y pipe will add a little more sound but it won't be extremely noticable... By resonator removal, you mean the resonators located in the tips right? Because there aren't resonators before the mufflers on the Greddy...

Holy moly... Just remembered.... You're right... LOL... But yeah, it'll be hella loud... Greddy sounds perfect as it is IMO... Agressive but not annoying...

Tough one to call... But i'm leaning more towards them maybe sounding a little too much like a fart can without them on.... Again, hard to say...

TP's or HFC's would definitely be the way to go... I know Fast Intentions has non-foulers you can install that prevent you from throwin CEL's...
