RE: resonator removal

l removed the resonator to install my SuperSprint Quad pipes, it wouldn't fit over the rear axle....no difference in sound or H.P.....[:)]..if you don't have to, there really is no reason....

RE: resonator removal

RE: resonator removal

No...you don't need to replace it, or put it back on..it has nothing to do with emissions....it is strictly for sound deadening......
