if your talkin about the exhaust no it will not sound like shit my exhaust was THE deepest sounding exhaust in my city and every one said they oved it. and mine is cut off.

Your kidding me right.....As mentioned they DO sound like weed whackers unless you like that sound. I sure as hell dont.

my question..... does taking out the resonator really help that much... and second.... he said he can feel it. Is this true?

Everyone is right in the thread...

Dont remove the resonator? why? you're not going to gain any HP..okay...1.5 HP? lol!

The only thing you'll gain is noise.

resonators get rid of higher frequency noises, so removing any type of resonator means more higher frequency noises, like those associated with open exhaust hondas and dirt bikes

ok.... cuz doesn't the intake resonator like restrict air flow since its silencing the air.
I don't know how it works but i'm guessing it slowst he air down by having it "resonate" in the box thingy then go to the intake? i have no idea

No, you're basically right, when you install any intake on a CB or w/e, the resonator is useless, so remove all the black plastic ducting beside the battery including that small black box, you can unplug that. And obviously the resonator

he's talking about the intake resonator i bet.....chamber built into the intake meant to quieten the intake down......no, they won't help at all to remove

if you're talking about the exhaust resonator, then your car's high pitch tones will get through, making it sound like a weed whacker

Ahh yes that is true i forgot about that one. I took mine out just remember to plug up that vacuum line.
