My thoughts on this are simple. If you plan on getting performance headers or cats ... don't replace the resonator. If you don't plan on getting headers or cats ... by all means remove the resonator.

I used to believe that the mufflers were the main source of noise reduction on these cars but now I think it has been clearly proven (to me) that it is mainly the resonator.
