Before I go to Active Autoworke's again, I had my resonator removed.

What do you think?

Personally, I like how it's not so loud and intrusive as getting a full muffler done.
Comments are always appreciated =)

It's in my garage, I think that was the intake.
I'll take another video from outside later.

Is removing a resonator a DIY or is there welding and stuff involved? I don't even know were the resonators are...

Have to cut and weld. DIY if you can cut and weld Krozi, if you are interested, go to Miami Muffler. Good prices and fantastic workmanship!
