Curious...the 2nd cat that connects to the muffler...couldn't I remove it and then cut it open, gut it, and then weld it back together again and now I have a straight pipe basically into the muffler instead of purchasing a resonator??
what's the actual difference between that and a performance resonator? |

Well, if you look up exhaust parts on 1sttoyotaparts.com it'll show you diagrams of the two designs, which would be of help.
The other trick is to rap the housing. As I mentioned, a resonator is an echo chamber and will respond loudly compared to a catalytic converter's internal honeycomb. |
