so i have a 05 ss sc
and there is a rattle comeing from my exhaust
i believe it to be my resinator
i have alrdy replaced my flex pipe as that was leaking and makein a boat load of noice
my question is
if i just remove the resinator will i have any running issues?
any1 done this?
my car is mostly stock only a intake

thanks in advance....

 

my car does the same thing i think its just the metal cooling ive tyred everything and mine still does it im use to it now

 

it does it as im driving
im not worried about the noise of it cooling when i park just the rattle on accel

 

I cut out mu resenstor and welded a straight pipe in. Its a lot louder and have no issues with it

 

awesome thats wat i like to hear lol
i will hopefully be doing this soon
thanks guys

 

Careful with this. Loud exhaust will occasionally **** off cops. With out the resonator, your exhaust will be significantly louder.

 

I have a rattle coming from underneath my car. I think it could be my cat? I don't know though. It happens when I'm idle &/or when I accelerate as well.

 

Did you get an aftermarket flex installed?

I had a similar issue. When I had the new flex installed, it ended up being a bit longer than stock. The cat was rattling around against something underneath the car, so I ended up having them put some extra braces on the exhaust to keep it from rattling so much.

I think mine was rattling against the front sway, but I don't remember.

 

lemme say i have the same issues? as all above i fixed it with changing the rubbers in between the hangers problem was that with the heavy exhaust it just stretched mine out so i bought new ones and hasnt done it since... try it its fairly cheap amd very easy

 

Check the heat shields if they're present.

 

will i lose any boast by removeing my resinator? due to less back pressure
thanks

 

I'm thinking about taking out my resonator, cause i'm almost at the end of my warranty.. can anyone tell me if I could loose any boost and power? thanks

 

it does **** off the cops, but in maryland as long as there is a cat, muffler and emissions are hooked up there isnt **** they can do.

I HAVENT NOTICED ANY POWER OR BOOST LOSS. HOWEVER WITH NO CAT AND NO RESINATOR IT DOES BACK FIRE ALOT MORE AND LOUDER. I LOVE IT
