I saw a Youtube video of dk Newyork exhaust set up. Im very much interested in doing this mod as its inexpensive and sounds meaner than most I've heard. Now my question is he took off his resonators and installed a x pipe and two cherry bomb glass pack mufflers. Are they any pros or cons as to take off the resonator? I would like to know before I remove them thanks in advance.

we always put the cherry bombs in place of the resonators. the sound is NOT that loud. It's perfect actually,.

So you pretty much cut out the stock mufflers and weld on some of your choice?

is there any performance gains from it or just sound?

it was in the range of $600 to $700 for everything. Depends on the shop you go to..custom and everything, they could just pull a price out of there head. Acceleration just has a deep sound to it when your driving normal. For idle, you almost cant even really hear it.
the best part of it...putting it in sport and then manual shift is soo beastly when you give it the gas
i wish i could give you a proper vid but videos just do not justices.
