exhaust help

I decided to go for a resonated x pipe and muffler delete set up for my exhaust but I was wondering how deleting the factory resonators and going with 2.5 in piping from the x pipe back would sound. Anyone have any suggestions or sound clips? I am also planning on adding Solos high flow resonated cats down the line and i'm wondering how those would sound with this setup i'm going with. Any advice is greatly appreciated.

Nice. The x pipe just got in today and Im going to my exhaust guy tomorrow to get the work done. I figured this would be the best route to go for the money. If for whatever reason It doesn't turn out the way I hope and I don't like the sound could I just add an aftermarket muffler to clean up the sound? I really doubt I will have to but Id like to have an easy fix just in case.

Ya I just wanted to post on here to get some last minute opinions and advice. I will definitely be deleting the resonators and going with bigger pipes. Hopefully Ill get those cats soon.

Wish I had videos...I went with high flow cats, x-pipe, MRT v1. Sounds great without major droning as well.
