Resonator Delete

is it bad to remove the middle Resonators in the m550? And do you lose power from that? I have a 2018 m550 with a stage 1 bootmode3 93 tune with a resonator delete.

Lol, I think I have a thread on it from a yr or so ago.

OP, resonators from my experience do absolutely nothing except hush any pops/bangs when down shifting and reduces volume by about 30-50%. Resonators are straight pipes with outer layer of sound absorbing stuff, pipes go straight thru with about 80 tiny wholes in each making the sound much more quiet

I JUST had mine removed yesterday. Took less than an hour and $300 bucks total including the x-pipe.

I like it a lot, there is zero drone as others have said. Its not any louder inside the car. I'm going to have a buddy drive it around while I am outside to listen too it.

But so far so good and a very inexpensive mod.

Does it void warranty?

No, it literally does nothing aside from making car louder. If leased you need to put them back in I believe

Definitely will. I've actually been considering straight pipes to the exhaust too..I'm going to discuss both with them.
