You will lose power with a resonator + muffler delete.

Well the dyno will just show how much you're losing for sure, but just from removing the mufflers alone, you're losing a lot of backpressure so that's the root cause of the loss of HP.

You won't notice any difference in performance from an x pipe without a ecu tune and even then very little noticeable gain . Sounds great though . You can try the classifieds section for used parts .
