What would happen if I remove the resonator?

    As the name suggests, i need a little pointing in the right direction.

    I have a 99' 3.4L with the TRD exhaust. I recently had the muffler replaced for a flowmaster super 40.

    I noticed a bit more burble, and an insanely powerful rumble at 1500 RPM.

    Now, if i removed the resonator- what would happen? Would it burble more? Crackle? Would i loose the powerful rumble? Advice needed, thanks!

    You would probably get horrible exhaust drone at cruising speeds.
