Default Ecoboost Resonator delete vs Muffler delete

Hey guys

I read many threads and watched many clips
Have not found a thread to compare between removing the resonator vs the muffler in temrs of sound and drone only (forget performance and MPG)

I'm confused between the two and not sure which route to go

Anyone did one then switched to the other?
Any info would be highly appreciated

Thanks

No mods in mind at all just looking for a bit of sound
I've heared clips for boths deletes and both sound nice just trying to get more personal opinion as sound in clips tend to differ from reality

resonator delete and a aftermarket tip maybe they way to go for under $200. Keeps the cost low and youll get a little more sound/whistle without brekaing the bank and waking the neighborhood lol

If interested in an exhaust go to youtube and find corsas youtube page. The sound you here in their video is damn near identical to the actual sound.

I went ahead and deleted the resonator

The sound difference is minimal

I guess people type Resonator while they mean the rear muffler

My RCSB Tremor came from the factory with no resonator. It has a slight bit more growl than my 2011 Scab w/ resonator when you really put your foot into it, otherwise it's barely noticeable.
