Title says it all, before I delet my resonators and have to pay to weld them back in, does anyone with just axel backs regret having it done?

I'm running borla s , not that it really matters

And I'm sure not, but since we're here go ahead and tell me a tune update will not be needed.

Really opens the exhaust up, sounds awesome. I have a lethal h pipe, resonator delete, and flowmasters. You don't have to retune it

I have a Pypes X-pipe, resonator delete, and Bassani Race axle backs and I love it.

No tune will be needed.

If you're not running an o/R pipe or headers I doubt it will make a difference

I am still running cats. Deleting resonators was a great decision for me( bbk X pipe/bassani ab). It really depends on your exhaust setup. There are some abs that sound like crap with o/r exhaust and resonator delete

JPC OAP's were one of the best things I ever did to my car.

removing the resonators on my old car was the worst thing i ever did. with in 2 weeks it put dynomax bullets in place of where the resonators use to be. if you want to get rid of the resonators just put some dynomax bullets in place. the sound will be there but the horrid poppy rasp wont be. if you are catless this appies if you still have cats im sure its not raspy and poppy

It's all preference. Some people like it some people don't. I remember when I first got my h pipe and started the car I wasn't to impressed. I decided to delete the resonators and it sound like it was supposed to.

Deleted Resonators w/GT500 AB sounded mean on my last 5.0L.....
No resonators and Kooks AB now and I do sorta regret it due to drone @ 1700-2000 rpm
But Im hoping the SS Headers will help

Not likely. I don't have the quads but there is no drone in mine. No resonators in either.
