Default possible n00b question...

Due to the fact that i'm not familiar with this sort of thing...does anyone know if removing the resonators will give you any emissions problems? Sound improvements? I'm hoping to delete the resonators and leave the stock exhaust to save a little money...

No, the resonators will not affect emissions at all. It is the catalytic converters that control emissions. It will make your car louder, but I have no idea if it will sound nice or not.
