Looking to put the resonator back on but I tossed mine. Anyone still have one they would get rid of?

I gets removed when people install a cold air intake like k&n or some (like me) remove it because it ugly (in my opinion) . It restricts air flow to the engine a little also and is mainly there to reduce engine noise.

What size engine do you have?

Hold the phone, GREG where did you route your crank case vent tube(comes off back valve cover and ran into the resonator)? I ran mine to the air box but it throws a CEL so I figured id put stock back on. Whats the other route to this?

I am still wondering as well, even after 4 years of research I am not convinced that it is worthwhile. I have even built one and have yet to install it, perhaps someday.

I gutted mine and put it back on as a cover

4 yrs of research??? Dude its a resonator box. That's all. Its there to keep down noise from the intake system. It also offers some resistance to the flow of air to the intake manifold, but not much. I took mine off because I think its ugly.
