As long as the air is getting filtered, it doesn't matter. As the name implies, the intake resonator is there to reduce noise, nothing else.

i just took mine out and it was kind of a @#$@...cause i tried not taking the wheel fender liner off but i had to anyways and i broke off the resonator cause i could find no other way to take it out so i yanked on it and it broke in half and i moved it out

and i also replaced it with a K&N filter

sounds just a lil bit louder but not really...haven't really pushed it since it is like my 2nd 3rd day driving after...
