What Is A Resonator Delete? What Does a Resonator Do? (EXPLAINED)

What Is A Resonator Delete? Wonder no more! I go over the details regarding what a resonator is, what it does, and if a resonator delete is right for you!

What is a resonator delete? This part is pretty straight forwards, it is when you remove the resonator from the exhaust system in your car! But why remove it?

I start by explaining what a Resonator is and how it is constructed. I go over the perforated pipe and metal chamber arrangement, with some material in-between for extra resonance.

Why do we have Resonators? As a result of consumer demand for quieter cars. Quietness is also related to how luxurious a car feels, pushing manufacturers to make their cars as quiet as possible. This was achieved using mufflers. However, mufflers introduce a lot of resistance in the exhaust system which leads to less power and less gas mileage from the car. Engineers needed a device that would make the car quieter as well as not restrict the flow. In comes the Resonator!

I explain why you should not remove your resonator unless you are planning on getting a full custom exhaust!

Someone gave me a free resonator delete when they tried stealing the cat and missed

[Julibiii]

Well well.. i just did resonator delete today.. but I actually love the aggressive growling and deeper sound it makes

[josephjoestar]

What a perfect video not just explaining res dlt but also what a resonator is and why it exists

[chiquicat]

This video is so good - to the point, clear, well explained and factual that not only I have given you a like and sub but I literally clicked several times on your video only to give you a few more extra views. Thank you for posting ❤

Hmm... my car is alot louder after a resonator delete, it also has a much deeper tone. I generally get people looking at me while I'm driving 🤣

[bigguy]

Wow awesome video bro you saved me from deleting mine on my F250 i took off stock muffler and put on a flow master series 40 and also removed the little small can resonator and left the big resonator on sounds awesome and zereo drone on the highway...thank you

[rezboadog]

Awesome video! I'm watching this after deleting my resonator :-)

[stuart]

What I learned was I’m still doing a resonator delete on my v8 since I want to hear it a bit more at lower rpm but don’t want it to be too aggressive either. The drone reduction you talk about a resonator eliminating on the highway at 2-3000rpm must be vehicle specific because my 10 speed only revs at 1300-1500 on the highway so even an aggressive exhaust doesn’t really drone unless you are towing a very heavy load. Good advice in theory and concept of how the resonator is designed in general though, thanks.

I always do a resonator delete on all my cars. I never had a problem with drone with the stock mufflers and adds a nice little rumble around town

[shotsbylf]

maybe i’m jus straight up dumb but you did a very well job of explaining this i can’t understand anything abt how every part really works and this video helped a lot keep pushing content man🤝

[wantblackwolf]

Thanks, mine is all rusted didn't know what it was. Took me a week before I found the name and you are the first to explain it in plain English. Now I know I don't want to put a strait pipe there.

[rdawg]

Hey man, thanks for making such good videos. You deserve more subs my mans.

[jeeebsknives]

You should have millions of subscribers. Thanks for the info

Might resonator delete my bicycle now but maybe not I don't want to go too fast.

[tsavage]

Getting my resonator delete tomorrow, getting a new muffler isnt making my car as loud as i would like, im going for a deeper and louder sound

[teresakurnat]

I have a mini cooper R56 that has a resonator delete. If you are familiar with Mini Coopers, they burble & pop in sport. I bought an aftermarket exhaust (Malian race exhaust) and now it has drone. If I put a resonator back on, will it take away my burbles & pops?

[RhobieNowlin]

Thanks good info on resonators been trying to find out should i remove mine or leave it on with my new exhaust system.BIG HELP THANKS!!!

[robertovelez]

This video needs more clout ! Thanks brotha !

[xLSUx]

Deleted the muffler and resonators on my 2021 Ram 1500 V8 and have no drone at high speeds. I love and prefer the deep growl it has.

[jadenberger]

Damn ur underrated man. Great video appreciate the help !
