Any new opinions on resonator and/or 2nd cat deletes
Seems like we have a lot of new CLK owners recently. Just looking for some fresh feedback from people who have removed their resonators and/or secondary cats.

I have been hemming and hawing getting this done for a while.

I am leaning towards getting both taken off, and keep the stock muffler. But... do not want an overly obnoxious cough/spit noise or any sort of drone.

I tried finding a soundclip of this setup, but so many people have gone to quad exhaust, it seems no one has the goold ole single oval anymore.
