If I take my resonator out will my car sound like a ricer or will it have a more powerful sound?

It will be a bit louder in your car and a bit more growl outside. You'll pick up a little hp but not enough to notice. and no it wont sound like a high reving 4 cyl engine.

You won't get any results you wouldn't like. Especially if you still have your stock muffler.

On my 1994 the stock resonator is a dud, there is no differance after i took it out. Inside it'* the same diameter tubbing as stock with an extra casing around it, i honestly don't see how this does anything noticable to the sound. There are no baffles inside just a straight pipe.
