The only gain you'll have is a loss of hearing.

Not worth it? I've heard some people say it makes it sound deeper

Plz don't.. Sounds like crap and who likes drone
Want a deeper sound get headers or have (w/e brand of mufflers you prefer) welded on

I've heard the same thing. Deleting the resonator/mufflers sounds like shat.
Adding headers, a downpipe, the a ubend delete is winning.

the 3800 in my opinion sounds best with a good quality muffler or a few other add ons here and there, if you want too make a difference do a U bend delete... if you compleetly delete the Resonator and Muffler it does not sound deep or thoaty it makes it sound raspy and loud... the exact opposite of what you want! additionally there will be no power gains that will effect the vehicle in any positive way...
the only time major exhaust modifications such as straight pipes or what have you have any positive effect on performance is when there are very extensive modifications done too a engine where the airflow increases greatly where the exhaust becomes a hindrance too the engines performance... then straight pypes will have positive effects but only in the instance in the demand of needed exhaust flow...
otherwise all you will succeed in doing is making yourself look like a fool and ticking off your neighbors...

Ok thanks for the advice. Wanted to get your guys' opinion before I did anything drastic but ill just stick with headers

Don't forget a downpipe and a u-bend delete if you are 97-03
Edit: Headers come with a DP......right??

Sound anything like this? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ds998if0eaI
I've heard a few straight piped, all sound a bit different for some reason. I didn't really like any of them though, I prefer stock or SLP
Here's another

personally i still don't think it sounds all that great, sounds way too loud and raspy for my taste...
11-13-2013
Confirms how much it sounds like ass

Electric exhaust cut out FTW
Loud and nasty when you want it and quiet and drone free when you want...
