I have a 2000 GTP, and the resonator is all types of broken.
**My choice is to either replace it with a new SSteel Resonator or just go straight pipe.**
Muffler Man said they could do either for $120… but that seems pricey… especially for a straight pipe.
Opinions?
(BTW, I wouldn’t mind a bit of extra performance / gas milage… but NOT if it makes the car sound like like either a Truck with no exhaust or a Honda with to big of an exhaust… tip)

Btw my normal mechanic’s number is disconnected…
Abid at Quality Auto on Colvin I hope he is still kick’in and gets it fixed
Otherwise, who would you guys suggest to get it replaced?
^- Leaning towards just a new Stainless Steel Resonator
