dude, I was getting my resonator/secondary cats chopped out and replaced with Xpipe and when we checked the Xpipe, realized it was too small... I drove for a week with primary cats open dump... and it sounded identical to yours... not sure how you do it. I was going bonkers
I always liked it.
. People always looked at it like "wtf is in that thing".

OK, did my CLS55 mufflers tonight
Here is stock (Headers w/ resonator / E55 Stock Mufflers)
Here is CLS mulfflers (Resonator still in place, only change was the mufflers)

C63 are the loudest and have a bit of a high pitch (exotic sounding)
CLS55 is right behind that in terms of volume, but a bit deeper
E63 is a little louder than stock
Any of these can be "upped" if you remove the resonator. The one thing I wanted to stay away from: The 57 Chevy truck sound.
I could not do the C63 having heard it in person. It sounds great, but its too loud for me. The CLS55 is just barely within my acceptance level. I am SOOOOO glad I went with these vs. the C63. I would have had to do it again, and that would have made me mental.

...How about we bring them all together... I have the 07 E63 with ARH Longtubes, 300 cell CATS, into ARH X Pipe with Silverstrk's E55 resonator and mufflers... Oh yeah,.. a pair of Vibrant Ultra Quiet resonators thrown in between the resonator and muffler... Why?..what else..the wife...It's quiet and no drone at all until you plant the foot.

Is there any drone at all with the C63 + resonator delete? I have a chance to pick up some C63 mufflers locally. Debating on deleting the resonators or not. I don't want it to be too loud and don't want any drone. The E55 is my daily and comfort is my priority - the M5 gives me my loud and obnoxious fix

I just got the c63 muffs installed. No other changes. It's barely louder than stock. Just a little more throaty. Sounds good. Not as loud as a stock c63, e63 or s63.
I'm considering deleting my resonator, but I think it's pretty good where it's at.

It will depend on other mods: headers / cat delete
The C63 mufflers are too loud for my taste (in combo with no cats / LT's), The CLS55 is just where my threshold ends. If it were a little louder, it would be too much, but I'm a puss.
If you have stock manifolds and cats, the C63 are probably tame. When you open up the rest of the exhaust, they are pretty frickin loud.

Depending on how loud you want, you can delete the secondaries/LTs as well.
Personally, my car makes more than enough noise for me with just the C63s mufflers and the resonator deleted. I think it would be far too loud for my taste if I did more to the exhaust. It is just right as this point, IMO.
I still haven't taken vids ... last two months have been busy! I will try my best in the coming weeks.

That sounds savage toadster, is that with resonator removed and c63`s on. Also have you taken the primary and 2nd cats off too?

at idle, it just shakes change in your car, but surprisingly quiet when cruising at 1800rpm
it's all buttoned up now... need to do a vid

Regardless what we have for exhaust mods, we can all rest assured that our beasts sound more like a race car than the current eco, green, bad handling, ugly excuse for a F1 racer. Yes, they may have just killed the goose that laid the golden egg.
