The resonators are free flowing so I wouldn't see any need to take them off other than for sound reasons.

Yes, stock intake. The only "performance" mod I have at the moment is the Mufflex.

Nice, Im probably going to end up going with the DOD14M on my truck. Hows resonance in the cab? If its too bad the wife will kill me.

Intake/exhaust mods MAY improve your mpg very slightly (1-2 mpg), but realize that it will literally take tens of thousands of miles just to break even and recoup the cost of the mods. And that is IF your mpg improves. Making your vehicle louder/faster usually doesn't encourage better driving habits. I like to mod too, but I think it's silly when people talk about doing it for better efficiency.

So would no muffler be considered free flowing? Haha
