I just told the guy at the shop that I wanted a resonator and thats
what he installed.  I think its just a straight through resonator, no
fiberglass or anything, but I could be wrong.

i think the general consensus is to leave the resonator and in fact put
a
larger one on.  what did you use for yours? and any idea where i could
get
something like that? thanks
