E550 convertible 2014 resonator delete

First i removed the resonator and the car was making ok'ish sound , but it was not compared to my previous e550 coupe 2010 NA
then I removed both resonator from car ( 2nd cat was actually a 2nd resonator not a cat ) and now it sounds much better and exactly what i wanted
no drone or extra noise in cabin at cruising

I went with OE... great pricing, most local to me and great with communication. Power is great! turning this car into 500+ horses is fun! the engine is just great! either way though, youll be more than satisfied!

Just to confirm, you removed both the front and rear resonators? Was it straight piped? Also, do you get any drone or loud cabin noise? I've got the '14 E550 Sedan and am looking to do the same. Sounds awesome!
