Fuk i miss that set up. I had the eisen race with primary cat delete (tms test pipe) and i noticed that with the test pipe, drone got better in the 3k rpm range b/c u could hear the sound of the engine (the rasp) that the test pipes create block the low frequency noise that the muffler alone creates. By all means, it wasnt quieter, just less bassy low frequency that used to annoy the hell out of me. But below that (say 2k), the car rattles more than before.

That said, i cannot compare betw secondary cat delete vs primary b/c i nvr had my sec cat deleted, but i'd assume u would make more power with primary cat delete bc thats the most restrictive part of the exhaust system more so than the sec cat.

I have the Eisenmann Race with the Akra Evo x-pipe. Definitely doesn't sound as raspy as that.

Remove primaries, add secondaries and resonators.

Does it have a raspy sound? I'm having a hard time finding vids online. The x-pipes I head sound raspy which IS NOT what I'm after.
