The resonator isn't necessary. I'd save a few bucks and have a new tailpipe welded sans resonator.

D*mn, two years? How much salt is on the roads where you live? It shouldn't rust through in two years even with salt rust. Insane.
OEM is too expensive IMO. I'd either pay a shop to weld up a custom system if that were the case. Should last a lot longer than two years and will be cheaper than OEM.

PennDOT loves to spray the saline on the roads around here. I replaced the whole system due to a loose cat core and a separated seam in the muffler; could have sprung for the Magnaflow cat-back set up, but it was a bit spendy the way it was, so I rolled the dice. Can't recall what brand it was. I don't see any markings on the unit anywhere.
Oh well.

There is an additional throaty rumble to the exhaust sound now. Not a huge difference at all. I just wanted to eliminate it since it hangs pretty low and I chopped a lot of the back panels off when I put a new bumper on. If you really want I can send you the deleted resonator.

Appreciate the offer. Actually the resonator is in great shape...it's the pipe itself that has flaked to hell. Unfortunately the pipe upstream of the resonator is trashed too. Will have to go all the way back to the mating flange at the aft end of the muffler.
I am going to try a local shop to have a pipe made up. Worst case I'll buy another resonator pipe assembly, but as I originally posted, I see conflicting info regarding the 03/04 being same part as 99-02.
