Very quick resonator question
 

Hey guys ill make this real quick very simple question should get a very simple yes or no answer. If i remove my resonator and put a stright pipe in its place on my stock 1.8T exhaust will my car bog up hill? i wanna get it removed tommorow but some peeople are telling me my cars gonna bog up hill and all that... is this true? thanks

I have never heard of that. If anything it should run smoother and cooler due to the resonator being removed and the air flow being more "free".

with that chip and that magnaflow muffler (if you have it) you should be fine. The exhaust should sound better as well

hmm i honestly dont know i hope your right its just some machanic that specializes in audis and stuff told me that i will, so i wanna get your input and opinion.

Removing the resonator on the stock car will not improve power. The resonator does not have restriction.

I had mine removed a few months ago and see NO problems going up hills, doing donuts or just taking off. ;)

Agreed...
It may backfire slightly or become more raspy/pop though. Most people that take their resonators off have mixed reactions. Some love it, some regret it.

Though i dont see problems performance wise the drowning on the highway can get a bit annoying.

the dreaded drone/oscillation above 70mph does your head in but saying that Ive heard cars doing that at idle due to big bore exhaust, if that's what you like go for it;)

i just crank up the 1000+ watt system in my car and i cant hear the exahust at all:D
