Default Resonator removal?

Allows the exhaust to flow more freely right? What, if any, would you say would be the whp increase on the f22a4 i currently run? Or does it just make the car louder with little to no increase in performance? Also any change to fuel mileage?

are you just removing the resonator and leaving the rest of the exhaust stock?

The only appreciable difference you'll note is the increased frequency of police following you and (of course) the increased decibel level from your exhaust.
Without additional changes, there will be no increase in performance.

Exhaust resonator? Would not give an you ounce more power. Leave it on, it will sound less buzzy.
