There you go my friend.

Honda's are pretty good in general with the cat, that goes from most manufacturers. Personally wouldn't bother changing it, save you money for something else.

As for a resonator, its basically a muffler, sometimes called a pre-muffler, amongst other things, so works the same as a muffler.

You might want a resonator, depends on what muffler you get. If you are going for a straight flow like a cannon style, the resonator can reduce to drone in the cabin.
Just a thought...

All depends on what you want it to sound like

well, im planning on getting a universal Remus muffler..

so would i possibly need a resonator? i dont want any drone in the cabin..

My friend has 2.5" piping, 2 x resonators and a silenced cannon style muffler and its still really loud!! The drone in the cabin is very evident and outside is very loud

its all in the muffler... I say...

how much does a resonator cost?

get a resonator put in 2 keep it from being 2 loud, so u wont get a canary....
with the cat, just take it off out n rip all of the insides out of it, then put it back in so it looks legit
