resonated means that the exhaust fumes are suppresed more giving a quieter exhaust note. nomn resonated means that is removed  so more of a free flow with more power and more noise from it

I would advise non res on the twin/single/hidden pipe systems and the resonated on the r32 system just for the sound!
