Ok so i know the resonator quiets down the exhuast but how....just the lows or highs or what.

I guess what im asking is how will my exhaust sound minus the resonator.

well no cat will make it tooo loud anyway.

I have a high flow cat already.

I have a turbo muffler and its a little too quiet. I wanna know if it will sound ok without the resonator

Q. What does the stock res. actually do.

A. Restrict exhaust flow by a lot.

Take it off and look inside...you'll see what I mean. It should get louder, and you'll get some more flow out of the stock exhaust.

but will it sound good without the stock resonator

just clamp a section in there and if you dont like the sound you can always clamp the res back in. I had my res removed when i did exhaust. Sounds nice.

Does the resonator has a role in the anti-emission system or is it only the cat that is doing the job?
