Just wondering if i had changed the exhaust tips, will it there be a deeper exhaust note... i'm not keen on ripping out the resonator box, still trying to keep it stockish while the car is still under warranty.. will i need to get the tips that require welding..
cheers..

nope
unless you stick a few holes in the muffler, but then it will not be a deep exhaust note, it'll be a farting noise. (not recommended)

My 03 euro has 2 lukey resonators in place of where the standard mufflers would be, it is a really deep tone but annoying in the car under load, the owner before me did it and they did the shittest home job welding ive seen in my life it was a utter mess bits of mig wire hanging off everywhere. gonna have to get it fixed soon.
but if u want deep tone just replace a mufflers with resonator

Changing exhaust tips CAN slightly alter the sound the exhaust makes. My friend put the exhaust tip from a Porsche GT3 onto his stock Camry muffler and it made a suprising amount of difference... but that is probably a semi-tuned tip to get a bit more raspy sound.
You're better off getting new mufflers or catback

Anyone know how heavy the stock zorst is?
Warranty runs out in about 8 months and thinking of replacing the exhaust with something better. Bit reluctant though as to be honest most of the euro's i have heard on youtube with catbacks dont sound that crash hot. Id probably go single tip as practical performance is what im after as opposed to looks.

Stock exhaust is really heavy, especially the catback section. I saved around 20kg all up with my exhaust over stock, and a good 12-13kg of that was in the catback

That heavy eh?
So if i go single muffler should be able to shave a few more kg's on top of that. Maybe dummy up a 2nd tip so it still looks stock.

mainly depends on the material you use.
My titanium single exhaust is only like 5kg or so and can be carried with 1 hand.

Yeah even my mild steel single outlet is only around 7-8kg
I reckon the stock one (with main resonator removed) is about 18-20kg
