Default Rear resonator ?'s.

Has anyone just removed the rear resonator and left the stock muffler in place? If so how did it sound?

I had the rear resonator removed from my '06 right after I got it. It is still quite inside the cabin but sounds throaty when giving it some gas. I had the 3" exhaust pipe extended to exit in the stock location with a nice polished stainless steel tip welded on.

You do not hear a change in exhaust note at all. Cruising down the highway with a steady throttle you do not hear the MDS kick in.
The stock front resonator and muffler do their job in keeping the interior quiet. Like I said before, put you foot on the gas and you are rewarded with a nice rumble/exhaust note inside.
