I did like Whitey and I removed the resonator
I wasn't happy w/ the sound my RBtech produced outside. It could've been a bit deeper. Knocked the resonator out, had a custom X pipe made, and voila! It's good!

Congrats and glad you're pleased mang.
Did you notice any improvement in response and power as well? How much for the custom job? I paid about US$100.
Not sure about fuel efficiency cos I had it done just as it was getting cooler. hence less AC. Some say it drinks more juice, some say less??????
dunno yet. Gut feel is there's not much difference, I may tend to be more heavy footed now so I could hear the sweet new sounds

Well that **** is loud I tell you that. It scares people 
Probably the loudest I'd EVER go on a Benz. I'll see what others think when they see it in person.
Interior drowning could potentially be a bit annoying... Who knows... maybe I'll slap some other resonator on. We'll see.
