If you put the resonator in you might lose 0.05% of your power or some other fairly insignificant number.. If you don't care about how loud your exhaust is I wouldn't bother, but if you find that you get a drone at some engine speeds (Like a new VR-X or Sports drones at about 2100rpm, but it seems to go away with time) then a resonator might help fix that.

It is purly there to tone down you exhaust , i have one in my new exhaust to make it more quite it depends how loud you want your exhaust .

I have 2 resonators :( as the DRONE with only 1 was umberable. The worst was(and some times still is, depending on mood :D ) driving at about 100kph and going up a slight hill

did you notice any difference in performance when you added the resonator/second resonator?

I can't say I noticed any performance differance when I put the second resonator on as I only lasted 3 days with the 1 res :shock: . The guy that did it for me said that you don't loose any noticable flow with the resonators.
But It still sound great above 3500 rpm(really sporty), and just sounds deep when putting along.

Hay, a week ago i got what they a hot dog put in it looks like a wide peace a pipe after the catlic, and is about a foot long, it reduced the noise cause i didn't have a resonator but man it sounds good
