My consistant 8.00 1/8th fell to a consistant 8.13 in similar conditions, I am assuming this is due to lost torque. I am considering reinstalling the resonator and would not recommend this mod when combined with removed rear cats.
You would need another tune to compensate for the modified exhaust. I also had rear cats & resonator removed, and also added the Magnaflow. Couldn't stand the drone and replaced the Maganflow with the stock muffler. I get some drone, but it is bearable now compared to the magnaflow.
Love the sound..............>
