Yeah, dual resonators I think means that they add one more in line, right?
Quieter, less performance probably.

Yeah...it'll probably sound a little better, but as 94 said it's probably a bit quieter with a little less performance. Just about all V6s will sound like crap without at least 1 resonator. I'd rather use 2 and lose a horsepower or two than use 1 and have it sound worse.

2 resonators is good... but not really neccisary.. as far as performance... the really don't impact much... they're ALL straight through. so it's not like they creat a blockage...
I have one resonator and the biggest muffler I could get from magnaflow and it's sounds nice and deep... but It could use another resonator or a cat... it's still a little too loud...
