Too true. Like I said, I admit it's a fault of mine, it's hard for me to let stupid remarks go by unchallenged.

Anyway, when I put the 4x4 Labs bumper on my 80, it necessitated cutting off the resonator. I had no issues with it, but that may be because any increase in exhaust noise was drowned by the churning of those 35" mud tires!

Still, IMHO it is not a functional item, just something to help refine the drive. I don't believe there is any noticeable back pressure loss or gain by having it or not having it (though I could be wrong).
