The U bend delete will free up your exhaust flow. Removing the resonator is going to give you a raspy V6 sound. Leaving that on and putting a nice set of fufflers on to change the tone will give you the low tone that you are probably looking for. This was said on another thread, but I can't remember by who. I've heard alot of people saying that they like the magnaflow mufflers. But everyone has their own brand that they like. Mine, I hacked off the resonator and mufflers a few years back and she is load as I doon't know what. Mainly did it to tick off the cops back home. Thay liked loud trucks but not cars. Gonna throw some mufflers back on Shortly. Probably some type of turbo muffler for now until I do the full exhaust on her.
