Is that thingy in my exhaust behind the cat a resonator? Will it sound goofy when i remove it?

i would imagine it wouldnt make that much of a differance, but i would leave it on cuz it dont interfere with anything.

i know that on cavailers/eclipse's it dont make a sound differance

Yes it is the resonator. Pretty much every member that has opted to remove it has said it made things much louder. And a few of them ended up putting it right back on, to loud. I just created my own resonator back system. I figured that way if it wasn't loud enough I could easily have the resonator replaced with a piece of pipe. I'm so glad I left it in place, it's plenty loud.

i have a straight pipe in place of my resonator, sound stayed about the same, maybe a little louder but not much, i notice more power in the top end. i also have a dynomax super turbo muffler
