2013 Audi A5 2.0T Resonator Delete - Before & After!

Hey Guys,
I had the resonator deleted on my Audi A5, here is some clips of before and after.
Tell me what you think and thanks for watching.

[@ashchraibi1312]

Hey bro Legit did this today and took the center resonator off as stated. Doesn't sound anything close to your car. Now i am tempted to take the 2nd resonator out to see what that does. Please be accurate and post on your description whats been done vs having most of us having to ask over and over whats been done, which clearly is inaccurate and costly. Just a thought. If anything, it may help your channel grow. No hate. Cheers.

[@bayleymassey]

Yo man! Did you ever get around to taking the 2nd one out?

[@Mr.Curtis.]

Just got this done to my 2014 A5. Thank you so much for this video it sounds exactly the same. I have the CTS Turbo High flow cat, CTS Downpipe, and resonator delete. I kept the muffler and it sounds just amazing. ( resonator delete cost me $120! )

[@jamotorsports7147]

Hey man that's awesome! Enjoy! Do you find thag the CTS parts have made a difference? And thats the good thing about a res delete, nice and cheap 😁

[@ParamjeetSingh-on2js]

Hey bro, may I know where did you got it done.. I leave in Melbourne thank you.👍

[@cyberwolf8887]

Why?

[@hasnaatalii]

sounds amazing i want audi a5 as my first car

[@keenankeenanr2867]

I have a 2013 A3 8V MQB platform 2.0T Quattro (wow that was a mouthful) but I am ordering a res delete now and I am very exceited. I was not trying to spend 1,200 today as I just got the APR ECU/TCU stage 1 tune/ inlet pipe/turbo muffler delete and a few other goodies. So I'm hoping it's not TOO loud, but lets see!

[@Game1Zone]

did you remove only the middle resonator ? the rest is stock any modification like air cold inatke ? Or Just resonator ? Please let me know !

[@jamotorsports7147]

Hi, No other upgrades =m no cold air intakes etc. Just resonator. Thanks!

[@rickycervantes7483]

You have both deleted or just one. It sounds good. I have and 2012 A5 2.0t and been thinking about deleting one and maybe a muffler delete.

Is an chiptuning stage 1 better for lifetime of a car?

[@snazzyissnazzy6816]

how did u get headlights with no orange on the sides?

[@hypebeast1333]

Hey mate , may I know why’d you decide to delete the resonator instead of the muffler? Since the resonator is in place to reduce drone also

[@bayleymassey]

Resonator also acts as a mild muffler too btw.

[@gbg7547]

Best sounding sports coupe for cheap will have mine in a few weeks

[@interstellar3578]

I’m trying to decide wether to remove the resonator or the back mufflers right now! Any suggestions? I want more noise out of the car mainly. Do you think the mufflers delete would give me those crackles?

[@S433D786]

Muffler delete sounds amazing but there will be Drone, get a bottle resonator and replace the stock resonator and get an electronic exhaust valve so you can open and close it for sound or silence

[@Ivan5642]

Sounds lovely, have you had any issues with the vehicle?

[@mid8511]

Hey mate, great car. I’m just curious, would it still sound as good if you didn’t have it tuned to stage 1?

[@jamotorsports7147]

Thanks mate! I am not too sure if it would change that much, think the bangs and pops would be a little less exuberant if it wasn't tuned but I think if it wasn't tuned it would still sound good.

[@user-vv6ns5dw4v]

Thanks for the vid! Wish my A5 sounded like yours. Did your A5 come with the paddle shifters? Mine doesn’t have them. And wow that Holden looks cool, would love to see vids on your other cars!

[@jamotorsports7147]

Thanks! Will be sure to get some more videos soon! My A5 did come with Paddle Shifters, not sure if the steering wheel I have is the original one or not though! But everything works non the less!!

only quattro and sline come with paddle shifters

[@louiloui4707]

@@user-vv6ns5dw4v the ones in the US I've noticed don't all come with paddles for some reasons. Bit stupid if u ask me but tbh u don't really need paddles or u can always get a new steering wheel if u really want them

[@user-vv6ns5dw4v]

loui loui yeah paddles are kind of useless, I bet they’re fun for a bit and they’re probably nice to have, they look cool and serve a purpose but aren’t a necessity. And you’re right I could get a different wheel and all that but that’s kinda pricey for me lol, I think I’ll stick to using the shifter in manual mode for fun :)

[@shandukanimanenzhe]

Hi, does this modification have any impact in fuel consumption, if so, roughly by how much?

[@XI512]

should not have any since it only affects the airflow

[@jamotorsports7147]

Yeah @@XI512 is right. A res delete won't really make a difference to fuel consumption

[@cameld1357]

Just got the resonator delete on my Audi A5 2.0l sounds exactly the same as this but doesn’t crackle I assume the backfire and crackle is a ecu tune

[@ShazeAn]

yes your right!

[@Beardchanics]

Another must do mod. Much better after :D

[@Ryan.2001]

So you kept the main muffler and just got rid of the resonator ?? I have the same car and I’m trying to figure out what I should do

Simon Vidal did you delete the rear one ahead of the muffler?

[@88KeysChris]

i just did this today and same result. i cut the one before the split from both back exhausts.

Hey Mate! Overall its been very reliable if you can pick one up from someone who has looked after it, The water pump for me did go at around 120k but I was expecting it as everyone said it would. other than that no issues 👍

[@Mr.Curtis.]

cAmEl D YES. I have a 2014 A5 2.0T a cold air intake is one of the best mods in my opinion. As soon as you install it you can hear your turbo sooo much louder. I have the K&N Typhoon!

MrCurtis oooo that’s alright bro I have a better plan actually I’m going to the wreckers and im gonna find the same exact Audi A5 2.0 2014 one side exhaust and buy the copy of my current stock exhaust from there wreckers and then start turning it into my own cat back exhaust instead of buying a $3000 car back from magnoflow, know what I mean?
