Where to buy X or H pipe to do resonator delete?

I couldn't find where to buy an X pipe or H pipe to replace the resonator?!

Would also appreciate input regarding results from anyone with experience with that cheap mod.

Thanks

If you want to safe money just cut the resonator out and replace it with pipes.

I replaced it with Eisenmann none resonated mid pipes

Gained good sound Miko?
Would you do it again?
Is is close to M sport or different gain?

I did the Eisenmann race exhaust and mid pipes at the same time
If you do just mid pipes it definitely will change the note but can't really tell you how much.

For me doing both was perfect, I couldn't stop so I changed both down pipes and intake. Lol

Yeah I first did the M sport exhaust but it was still too quiet and then did the custom X pipe to remove the resonators for about $400
That was a lot better as far as sound but you have to use a shop who knows what they are doing and have a mandrel bender on site to properly bend the pipes.

For me that was still not loud enough and then added the axle back Eisenmann valved system and now its perfect for me as this is my daily.
Now remember the car is extremely well insulated so you won't hear a huge difference in tone inside without the windows down.
Also give the exhausts time to break in as the sound will get better over time.

Hope this helps!
