M6 Coupe Muffler Delete and Resonator Delete

Like the title says im doing a muffler delete and resonator delete today on my M6 coupe. Anyone else do this one there stock M6 coupe exhaust? I am sure about the muffler delete but am slightly hesitant that the resonator delete will not enhance the sound to my exhaust that much and will cause a lot more drone. Can anyone let me know there thoughts if i should get both done or just the muffler delete? Thanks!


edit: here is the long over due video clip of my muffler delete/resonator delete, enjoy

I am going to get my resonators deleted. F10 M5 guys say there is no drone at all. Adds a bit more popping and spooling at the high end.

I recently wired open my stock exhaust flappers and the sound is so much better.

I think some exhausts (maybe all M-Series exhausts) have valves that open/close (aka flappers). They open when you have your settings in M Mode set aggressively (don't know the proper setting that activates it).

I never had a stock exhaust on my M6 (it had Eisenmann Race when I bought it) so I don't know how the M6 operates exactly but the "flapper" sysem is on my X5M.

WHOAA!!! Please explain, I did not know we could do that to the stock exhaust on the M6. My brother did it to his M4 and it sounds way better then stock.

Very nice!! I'm wanting the right balance between sounding loud and mean, and still being able to do a 10 hour road trip without getting a headache Not sure what the best path for that is yet...

Very nice!

I did the Turner Motorsports system and it sounds exactly what I'd expect a car like this to sound. It brings out the M6's character and just sounds mean/exotic/cool.

ETA: On default settings, it's just slightly louder than stock. On my M1/M2 or S3, it just rips!
