I need your help??

So has anyone removed the "resonator" on the stock intake? Im thinking I can cut it off, tape up the inside, and use a plastic resin to fill the hole. I figure I should have a smooth surface, even if I cant remove the tape after it dries. Has anyone done this?? does it make a difference? the resonator is rubbing on my RX catch can.
thanks for all the input.

Good choice getting the Catch can early. You may want to look into a new intake to help wake up the car next.
