The resonator or suitcase as it has been nicknamed, is heavy, and has become one of the first parts many enthusiasts are removing.

Exhaust upgrades are one of the first, if not the first modification that most Mustang owners perform. The 2015 Mustang uses an exhaust system that is all new, and different from any system, on any Mustang previously built.

One of the first components many enthusiasts have figured out that they want to ditch for better sound, and less weight, is the resonator, or suitcase. This component serves as the factory merge to balance out exhaust pulses, giving the 2015 Mustang its familiar rumble. However, the factory unit must also meet noise standards in the US, and likely many other global markets. It must also be extremely durable. The result is a heavy component that not only adds weight, but also reduces the Mustang sound.

For those looking to unleash a little more sound, possibly some power, and drop a few pounds off their 2015 Mustang’s weight, Mustangs Unlimited is offering up this 2015 Mustang Resonator Delete X-pipe, part number RDP1501. This pipe is direct replacement for the factory unit, although it does require cutting the rear (muffler side) pipes and utilizing new clamps there to complete the installation. According to Mustangs unlimited it also allows the cars to drop around 15 pounds of weight from the exhaust system. This pipe should make the exhaust note, even with stock mufflers a little more rowdy as well.

The best part of this X-pipe however, may be the price, at under $100, and qualifying for free shipping, this is the least expensive solution we’ve seen yet for eliminating the resonator on a 2015 Mustang. Mustangs Unlimited has these X-pipes in stock and ready to ship right now.
