Default Getting my catback......but

I am getting my catback done tommorrow morning with 2.5 inch pipes and a 1 in 2 out magnaflow muff out the back. My question is this, what resonators would you remove the front, rear, bothor none? Are there anypros or cons either way?? performance/sound etc.....

There is only one resonator and it is located about 2feet from the end of the tailpipe. I also see you have an 03, Im pretty sure the 03's didnt come with a resonator, just 04-up has it. A stock 03 should only have 1 catalytic convertor and 1 muffler.

OOOOPPPss didn't know that I thought they all had at least one on them. I haven't looked under there lately so I can't say for sure. I will take a look 1st thing in the morning. But isn't the resonator the huge cans under there.
