if you have to replace the muffler itself, go ahead and get a magnaflow muffler can, then if you want get a place to fab u up some piping. shouldnt cost that much

i'd keep the resonator.. just me.my resonator got a hole in it.. i went to mienke to get a quote on custom fabbed exahust.. they said it goes from $350 and up, i was truly surprised.

I would strongly urge you not to take out the resonator unless you have engine mods. My bro had his taken out because it was rusted through and after he did that the car was loud as hell with very little GO. Though if it sounds really bad now, then the resonator might be toast as well. just a thought.
