Stock exhaust with resonator delete ?

I have a 2013 gt completely stock. I am getting married in a few months so mod money is low bc everything is going towards to honeymoon in Hawaii. Would a resonator delete do anything to make the stock exhaust sound better. And how much does it cost to have done? Any info on this would be great. Thanks in advance.

Try it out. Should cost $60 or so maybe less. I have mine but nothing stock on my exhaust.

When you have the $$$ to get your axle back, you should do it anyway. So doing it now won't hurt a thing. Let us know the sound difference. Doubt that it will be too much though.

60 for res delete - questionable - you can get some good AB's for a little more - save up if you have to and get a good AB - there are not many posts about stock exhaust mods because it doesn't work. you can get gt500 ab's from AM for 309 and ask for a forum discount to bring it down 6%. or go to your local exhaust specialist shop and ask them. I never considered stock mods as everything I read said it's painful.

do what you want, maybe the sound will be to your liking... I searched youtube and couldn't find a soundclip.........

It's honestly not that inspiring... The GT500 axle back swap, and a resonator delete are the go to budget friendly ticket it seems. I have a similar plan in store

Best bang for your buck and second best system out there other than Borla S type.

I'm real happy with my setup, only thing I'd consider further are the electric cutouts for the boss h pipe. With the side exhaust wide open it's loud and mean with the gt500's - but for daily driving it's way to loud for me. I cannot imagine resi delete is the way I'd ever go, just too loud for me.

Thanks for the input. I guess I will be saving up for the gt500 set up from AM.

I deleted my res on my other 13' and it wasn't anything to shake a stick at. After I got my X-pipe and and axle backs, it sounded great!
