Our Mid pipes will net you pretty good power out of the stock exhaust system. We have a couple videos being posted very soon. One with our Riss Racing 3" Catted downpipes w/ Mid pipes and Catless downpipes w/ Mid pipes. Links are in my signature! Thank you!

Wouldn’t recommend the resonator delete!!! I had my resonators removed and I hate the sound. Its not annoying but it sounds like a tricked out civic. Doesn’t have that deep tone I was looking for.

STOCK > resonator delete.

Removing your cats voids warranty, and if you get your mufflers removed cops can (and will) impound your car! Invest in an exhaust system; also take into consideration that the 335i sounds great stock.

Hmm... from what i understand the 335i coupes don't have a resonator and as a result (along with likely a slightly different exhaust piping layout) sound significantly louder in sporty way. Don't think I ever heard anyone say the e92 335 stock pipes sounded like a tricked out civic before.

I suppose a e90 with the resonator delete !- e92 stock sound?

Exhaust systems are not mechanical...So what warranty will be voided here?
I asked my SA about 2nd cat delete with straight pipe all the way til section 3, he said there is nothing to warranty on your exhaust haha

Wouldnt it be the same as changing your section 3 mufflers to aftermarket?

Exhaust cutouts. QTEC has some electronic ones that can be opened and closed within the cabin.

Secondary cat delete

Just a louder form of the stock sound, a little burble every now and then. Its a really clean sound. No droning, and if there is any just turn up the stereo a click or two. Not loud inside at all.

Just unbolt it after your downpipes and put some turndowns on. =p. Obviously kidding... Golf Tee mod would be the cheapest (free if you have golf tees laying around), or save up for a complete exhaust system.
