Q. What is a resonator and what's the difference between a resonated and non-resonated exhaust system?

A. A resonator is a chamber in the exhaust system that contains a specific volume of air which is designed to cancel out certain frequencies of sound (made by the engine) - making the exhaust noise quieter.

Therefore, a non-resonated exhaust system will give you extra performance and a louder exhaust note and the resonated system will give you extra performance without increasing the exhaust noise much.

The resonated Milltek just contains an extra silencer.

I'm running a 3" downpipe with non-res Milltek cat-back and it's extremely quiet unless you're booting it, even then it isn't extremely loud.
