I keep coming back to this thread and checking out the AM Vid as well as doing some research...
We have a custom exhaust shop here and I gave them a call - they can do the bolt on h pipe res delete - but he recommends doing a custom job that is welded in as bolt ons can leak and move... has anybody done this? He can do it in either an H or X config - I'd do the H config, he's quoting $275 total for the job... probably the same price as buying the bolt on and having them do the install.... SERIOUSLY considering this option....

I don't know about the stock active exhaust. But I will say, with my non active stock exhaust there is more popping with the res delete h pipe than before. I didn't hearr any popping before.

I have some decal burble and popping on my ‘14 GT with GT500 ABs and I’ve heard that deleting the resonator will increase that which I really like. I’m seriously considering a ‘19 now though so I’m not gonna mod the ‘14. I might have to go test drive a ‘19 with active exhaust though.

Yes - there is a small amount of snap/crackle/pop - but very very small... my 13 had the boss quad exhaust with gt500 ab's - depending how how I layered the clutch, I could pop pop pop all the way on decel... I just assumed the 10R80 won't pop as much because, it's an auto... *shrug* - once I get the H pipe installed I'm curious how much more pop I will get - I only run exhaust in TRACK mode...

Today I Installed the MRT H-pipe resonator delete on my 2018 GT with the 10R80 auto trans. The resonator weighs 17 pounds and the pipe weighed in at 10.5 pounds. Not much of a weight savings but that is not the point of a h pipe or x pipe. Did the install by myself. Not terribly difficult just cumbersome. A much louder and slightly deeper tone to the exhaust now. I am very pleased with this rather simple modification.

Hi guys I'm new on this site, not new to fiddling with my cars.
I approached an exhaust company to do the H pipe and they want to leave the resonater box and replace the rear end boxes?
i like the idea of just removing the resonater and running two pipes back down to the end boxes and fitting a H pipe? Two questions will it be stupid loud? And do I need to make all the fancy bends in it?

ok so I had this made today and fitted it has improved the sound a bit, in comparison to my Aston V8 it's still very " dare I say a non event"
we addd a bracket at the rear to add strength near where it joins to the pipes leading to the back boxes
all in cost was around 50 USD we used stainless pipe,

The 15-17 mufflers are very different from the 2018+. I'd still do an axleback kit. The stock mufflers are way too quiet. If you don't want it too loud you could do the Borla Touring or for a little louder go with the Corsa Sports.
