i have the 7a-fe with a magnaflow muffler and i wanna know if i should cut off the stock resonator and straight pipe it for a louder sound and better tone or not. im pretty sure the muffler i have acts as a resonator itself, so is the stock one just counter acting it or is it still needed?

exhaust don't sound that well without a resonator. sometimes just not having a catalytic on certain catbacks sound ugly already esp. if the muffler is generic.
