Putting resonators in their place won't necessarily increase the level of sound. It's not like your replacing them with straight pipe.

If you want to get rid of the Rasp/ drone, 99% of 335 owners will do a secondary cat delete with 1792 Vibrant Resonators

Depends on the rest of the exhaust set up.
I would imagine you are not stock from your statement.
But for example, IF fully stock, removing them wouldnt do too much either way.
If catless dp AND muffler delete, removing them will substantially increase sound and sound like a fart can in the midrange.
Lots of variables.

Drone and rasp are 2 different things...so beware what approach to take.

I done know about Dinan mufflers. I have going back from the turbos :

- 3" MMP catless down pipes
- 1792 Vibrant Resonators (2.5")
- 2.5" X-pipe (after mkt SS)
- 335is mufflers w/ golf tee mod

No drone or rasp

Is there a way to fit a Magnaflow 11386 Exhaust x pipe Muffler where the stock x pipe is with stock mufflers?
I figure it will be sitting a little lower and woud have to remove the skid plate.
Thanks 🍻

Increasing the flow of the exhaust and reducing turbo destroying back pressure in the system

I'm running a stock exhaust with DP's, and secondaries swapped out for Vibrant resonators on my 335i....knocked out at 10.90 at the track @ 128mph. Probably making close to 600hp.....so the stock exhaust can flow pretty well if you get all of the restrictions out of the system. And it's not obnoxious sounding like a lot of those cheap aftermarket exhaust systems.
