Was having a debate with my brother the other day which went no where btw....
Anyway, we were contemplating on whether or not removing the resonators would harm the cars performance.
I remember reading a thread stating the exhaust system was free flowing so removing the resonators wouldn't change the performance. It was along time ago and i can't remember if thats what i read or not.
So, can anyone chime in here?

Noise is about the only thing it will affect. I took mine off and replaced it with one from an Accord (much lighter weight and I love the sound), but no difference in performance.
