Exhaust mods: Cut Secondary Cats, Cut resonator, or both?
Just got my p31 204! Super excited and really love the car but I think it needs more sounds. I've seen people do just resonator deletes or just cat deletes, and both but I am not sure what I want. I'd appreciate some recommendations and opinions! Thanks guys.

There are many threads here already discussing pros and cons and opinions as it relates to your question. Have you thought about looking at those or posing a reply to those before starting another new thread on the same thing?

Update: couldn't find much besides mid sections for sale, could you link me to the thread?

My rec, your choice of LTH, Mid-Pipes, X-pipe . I personally went with MBH on both of my w204s. While I run this setup I plan to switch it up with Akrapovic titanium exhaust. But I’m still waiting for MBH goodies to come in first.
Youtube will be your best friend for sound clips. You can search any combination and someone has done it and uploaded it on youtube. “C63 w204 lth” or “c63 mid pipes x pipe”... etc....

Sound Clip: 2012 C63 Base with Secondary Cat and Res Delete
I've personally had this setup on all my C63's, and so far it's the best bang for the buck exhaust job. It's enough to satisfy a modest itch before committing to move onto LTH or full cat-backs.
All secrecy aside here's the setup in case you're new:
- Primary Catalytic Converters (untouched)
- Secondary Catalytic Converters (removed and replaced with a Magnaflow 2.5-inch x-pipe $100 Amazon)
- Resonator (removed and replaced with straight pipes leading from the x-pipe to the mufflers)
- Mufflers (untouched)

2nd cat delete
IMHO, the best combination is replacing the secondary cats with straight pipes. Leave the primary cats and resonator as is.
It turns up the volume of the great sounding stock C63.
