u wont get a deep sound by takin off the resonator. I had that done and it sounded like crap in my opinion. If you want the deep sound keep the exhaust WITH resonator and get a cold air intake!!! that will give you the deep sound you are looking for.

Hi,

You feel any difference in accerelation or gains by taking out the cat and resonator, I have an auto too and I was thinking of doing it. What did you do with the o2 sensor on the cat.
