Muffler Delete + Aftermarket Resonators?

Does anyone know how a muffler delete will sound like with 12 inch bottle resonators in place of the stock ones?

Theyre also good quality and do a great job cleaning up the sound. If you have test pipes i reccomend vibrant ultra quiet resonators

I see. My apologies. In that case ive got no experience.
I do know first hand the the vibrant ultra quiet resonators do a fantastic job at quieting down loud exhaust without removing the signature sound

Actually I'm looking to get the exhaust a bit louder not quieter but I feel like the resonators will only reduce rasp and drone and it will be as loud as just completely removing the resonators?

Yes your correct. The purpose imo of a res is reduce the boom reduce drone and reduce rasp thus cleaning up per se the exhaust note. Im not sure what the sedan resonators look like but if theyre not the bottle type and look more like muffflers then they are also quieting the exhaust.
I would replace with vibrant 12in bottle style

The sedan appears to be longer than 12". Guessing around 16-18". I have a muffler delete and it sounds pretty good with the rest of the piping stock.

They are bottle style like the coupe but they are about 18 inches long.. and the vibrants are the ones I was looking at too but I'm just worried it will be too loud like straight pipe or will those tiny 12s still muffle some sound?

The 12s definitely muffle some. But the best part is they kill rasp and clean up the tone

Ok thats good to hear. I was only worrying that the 12 inch resonators would be too small to muffle any sound.
