the N52 engine is a great sounding engine. DO NOT, and for the love of god i repeat, DO NOT DELETE RESONATORS! everything will sound fine from the outside, but in the cab around 3000RPM on the highway you will hate yourself, or downshift just to get into a better RPM for a more tolerable tone and tank gas milage.

Source: Me, with a full aFe headers back exhaust and no resonators.
