Default Where is the resonator?

Sorry for the noob question guys I'm just not very familiar with how exhaust systems work. Anyway, does anyone know where exactly the resonator goes? I just bought a Tsudo Axel Back today and I'm wondering if an axel back comes with a resonator that I will have to delete again or if it's just the end piping .

I already deleted the stock resonator on the stock exhaust so does that mean when I install the Tsudo that I will already have a resonator deleted axel back? Thanks

Yes you're resonator is gone then. It goes in this order from front to back - headers - cats - resonator - axle back (mufflers). Cats and resonator are on your Y-pipe.

Your Axle Back is only from the Axle section to the back which in the IS is right behind your stock resonator. Axle Back has no resonator just a Y pipe connected to Muffler and Tip.
