Get a Ktuner and make more horses instead of noise.

KTuner first for sure for some get up and go. By far the best bang for your buck.

I did a muffler delete and it sounds pretty damn good, tbh. Noticeably louder than stock, but not annoyingly so. Only very slight drone just under 2k RPM and around 4k, but nothing unbearable. Literally drowned out by turning up my music by like.. 2.. if it bugs me. Only cost me $150 at a local muffler shop, and that included exhaust tips.

Intake for woosh noises. PRL and 27WON are popular choices

Can confirm, delete the muffler and keep the resonator. Perfect amount of exhaust sound.

Thanks, should've mentioned that. I kept the resonator, pretty much had 'em cut the pipes right before it curves off to the mufflers and ran it straight back to the center opening of the sport hatch bumper

edit: forgot I had a sound clip on youtube

K Tuner would be a nice first Mod/tune for us CVT owners :) , then you could go for Intake (PRL , 27WON) .

What about keep the muffler but get rid of the resonator? would that sound good?
I’ve had just the muffler and now I have just the resonator. IMO the muffler delete w/ medium size resonator sounds the best. It also saves like 40 lbs due to mufflers being off.
