I'm replacing the muffler on my BII w/2.9L, as the thing pretty much blew itself apart (putting a Magnaflow muffler on it).
Question: Should I replace that resonator thing that's after the muffler? Or should I just swap it out completely for a straight piece of pipe? (discovered it has a bunch of debris rattling around in it)
What does it do exactly anyway? Does it change the backpressure much? Will it be a lot louder without it? (I don't mind a little bit of exhaust sound, but I don't want to go deaf inside the truck while on the freeway).
I've been told a cheap glasspack can be substituted for it also, good idea?
Looking for some suggestions (haven't messed around with exhaust much).
Thanks guys
