For all of you with resonator delete
OK, so I know this has been discussed numerous times and many many threads but I can't find the answer I'm looking for. For a 08 type S
So I'm going to remove the stock resonator and replace it with the magnaflow resonator as described in the other threads.
1. Is it really worth it?
2. Does it really make a difference in sound but still sound good? (looking at the youtube clips, you can't really tell as the sound is always distorted)
3. Will it effect emissions? ( I don't think it will since it is just for sound but just making sure)
4. This will only void my warranty on exhaust I assume right?
Thanks,

I did this mod on my 07 TL-S - it wasn't much money, and I can tell a little difference in the exhaust tone. Nothing major, but subtle. I don't think it effects emissions, but I'm no expert. It will only void the warranty if Acura can trace the problem caused, back to the absence of the OEM resonator, and/or prove that a problem is caused by the presence of the magnaflow resonator.

Id say its worth it. I deleted teh resonator and mid muffler.
Had all custom piping done to a magnaflow Y pipe and two magnaflow mufflers.
I still today get in it and love hearing start up.
