Muffler delete + 2.5" or 3" DP

Hi guys I was wondering does anyone have this setup I'm thinking about the VK DP I heard that they r comin out with a 3" DP and heard good reviews about it the VK 2.5" so I wanted to know does anyone have this setup or simulare setup like that with a muffler delete is there drone? a lot of it? R u happy with the setup or should I just go with a cheap HKS replica?

Thank you.

i just got my muffer delete, the sound is good, but that only happens in very low rpm, there's nothing after 3000rpm, so im planning to get the 2nd cat delete as well.

any size catless downpipes w/ a muffler delete will be loud as hell and drone.

Think about it, your gonna be running catless with midpipes only... or maybe i'm not understanding you correctly

I would go muffler delete first, and then if you still want more noise/power go with DPs.

My friends got a Muffler delete sounds great but I wanted something louder. And I read that one of the best bang for the buck is downpipes. I dont want to touch the midpipes cuz I think that would b way too loud. I want also c how those hks replicas sound like cuz they r mufflers and no midpipes full 3" piping. I was thinkin of doing that with downpipes also still thinking wats best.

I don't know about this, since i think 4 cat is like 4 walls on the pipe.
And there's really no high end sound. BTW, so catless downpipe with muffer delete sound louder or catless midpipe with muffler delete louder?
