Is getting a resonator installed worth it???

I have a buddy club exhaust that sounds like a damn Harley. I have a silencer that quite's it a lot. But I know I'm sacrificing a lot of power. I heard resonators help lower the noise level plus it doesn't decrease horse power. How long should the resonator be??? Thanks for your help guys.

yea i am also interested. Also with a resonator in will it just lower the sound level but keep the same sound charteristic or will it completly warp the sound to something else.

A resonator will of course not flow as well as a straight pipe but most exhaust on the market come with resonators.

How long should it be? I put a resonator on my Focus and it didn't do anything. I couldn't even notice the difference.
