I just read this from an old thread located at:
http://www.fordforums.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=8950&highlight=exhaust+note
------------------
Mal, I actually contacted Tickford Technical direct for the best option (additional performance and exhaust note) for my XR6, and they advised that the most simple solution for the least cost and maximum effect is yes, get rid of the rear resonator.
I assume that the same would apply to the XR8.(Why don't they just offer this as another option?)
However without getting off the track, (just for other readers) where the AUXR6 is concerned, according to the T/Tech.if you're after additional performance , you won't get any additional from after market headers etc versus just loosing the resonator unless you also put in a performance chip.
--------------------
Can anyone confirm this, as a cheap mod to make the exhaust note sound good?
Anyone done it ?
Any thoughts, opinions ?
