2013 R56 S Exhaust Ideas
I'm on a limited budget and was thinking up some options to open up my exhaust. My idea was to get a 2.5" catless downpipe, 2nd cat delete, and a cherry bomb glass pack to delete the resonator or just have a shop delete it. What do you guys think? Any advice?
What is a good brand of catless downpipe? I heard some bad things about the CNT one for 150$.
Do you guys like the idea of the cherry bomb resonator delete? Anyone got any idea on a good brand one? Thanks!!!!!
Also, anyone have any idea how much I can recycle my old cats for?

Before I went catlass, I put a Black Widow 2.5" out and it was loud, and droned a lot. Sounded awesome though lol. It was a little much for me at the time so I took it off and put my stock JCW back on. My stock JCW does have the resonator deleted. It sounds good. Now I went catless and it sounds really good. I did the Sneed4Speed downpipe. I like it. It looks quality made and I had it sent to get Ceramic Coated. Unfortunately, no sound clips as of now

I bought my 2012 with stock DP, second cat and resonator straight piped, and muffler replaced with a smaller straight-thru unit, and it may as well have been straight piped with how loud it was in the cabin.
I added a Vibrant Ultra Quiet resonator where the old resonator used to be and added some KilMat to the trunk floor. The resonator made a huge difference, but it's still loud enough that it gives you a headache after 45 mins on the highway.
I'd try one thing at a time - do the downpipe, see how it sounds, then go from there. Maybe try just the cat, or just the muffler.
