So, what did you do to the system? It sounds really good from the exhaust. How noticeable is the sound inside?

So from the catback we remove all resonators and mufflers. And replaced it with 2” aluminized Steel pipe. From the inside of the car you can definitely hear a difference but not much drone!

Thank you brother.

Do you still have the two foot resonators loose? Are they the kind you can see straight through? Just a perforated inner tube with insulation around the tube?

I’m interested in doing this but fearful of it voiding the manufacturer warranty. Would this void the warranty or am I just stupidly paranoid?

As long as you don’t mess with the cats. you should be fine. I’ve had cat backs on quite a few vehicles and never an issue
