Did you search at all? This has been discussed before.

Your title says muffler, post says resonator...so which are you talking about?

IMO, it will sound raspy without the resonator, ie. like crap. But that's just me. If the muffler/cat-back is all you are changing, look into Megan Racing or Cattman. Of course, there is always the custom route, but you'd have to do a little more research and source for the correct parts.

Btw, in general, how an exhaust sounds is all personal opinion, what might sound like a "fart cannon" to someone might sound "deep and mellow" to someone else. Check out the exhaust clip thread and search on YouTube to see if you can find something you like, even though nothing beats hearing an exhaust in person.

I'm trying to see what route I want to go.I want it to sound a little deeper than factory(like a Infinity I heard it has factory exhaust).If I take the resinator off will that help or hurt my power .I just don't like look of the factory dual tips.I hate to keep rambling.....

1. It's spelled Infiniti
2. Your resonator question has been answered
3. Link has been provided to almost every combo of exhaust available for our cars, go decide yourself which one YOU like
