Performance Exhaust

Performance exhaust question, in particular the 2020 GLC43.

if I was to delete the resonator on the PE will it make both modes louder, would it just make it louder when the switch is opened or would it do no difference.

open to advice, I want a loud note with the burble but just wanted to know if both modes will be affected

It would make all modes louder as the resonator is prior to the valve system.

Some dd that on the forum . I never saw a video after removing the middle resonator .
If you dig a little more in the forum you should see pictures . One guy even removed the resonator ,open the top,removed everything inside and welded the top back to lock like stock .

I also had my mid resonator taken apart and emptied and welded back, but I did not have the PE exhaust. The sound changed a little bit in every mode.
