It'll make the car louder. It should cost around $50ish-$100ish depending on what kind of deal you can get.

that does't even make any sense. if you have replaced everything else... you would have replaced a stock resonator with a new one.

no, i have a downpipe, and then the resonator, then a turn down. only part of the stock exhaust i have left is the resonator.

I just did mine today in Chicago for 30 bucks and I love it. Don't pay more than 40 to get it done. I was in and out in literally 15 mins, so it shouldnt take long

Well i went to Stan, and i told him i want it removed and that i want flanges put in so i can put the resonator back there if i got tired of the sound.
The basically told me. 80 bucks for a pipe welded in place of the resonator or 250 bucks the way i wanted it.
Needless to say i didn't go for it.

Do it. Any muffler shop for under $100. You will not want to put the resonator back in.

Give us a call guys, we can do this pretty easy and will replace it with a piece of stainless steel, not mild steel or aluminumized steel. This way you don't have to worry about it rusting out over time.

Cost... should be around $80 to get this done. 253-887-8305

Thanks.

The two flanges are going to cost if they are not common items. We could cut the flanges out and use v-bands, but at $70 a pop for the v-bands it would be around $240 to make the system "swappable". We can do it, just give us a call.
