Does anybody have pic's of the SS M6 resonators behind the h-pipe cut open? I am wondering if a similar miss comparison is being performed like when they compare shorty vs long tube headers using STOCK cats on the shorty's..which we know is the BIGGEST restriction in our exhaust... if the resonators are in fact another restriction like a cat's baffle vs a straight thru design aka an open baffle tube...when adding an x-pipe typically the stock resonators are removed, correct? SO if they do in fact add a restriction then the h-pipe to x-pipe comparison is not a true apples to apples...

I do agree that the x-pipe design does flow better and as stated above on high hp with 3in I would do in a heart beat...but to digress for a sec my power ain't the prob....traction is..

So anybody got a pic or a definitive answer on the resonator construction on the M6 cars only...the auto's resonators are just plain nasty to begin with...tks!
