[s-cars] exhaust question, resonator removal.

[David K. Blumenkranz]

the exhuast broke at the connection right before the resonator. so i
basically have 2 pipes resting on a bracket under my tranny. they
arent cut or damaged. I also have the the rear muffler...which is 
perfect. I want to just extend the 2 pipes where the resonator would
have gone and connect it to the muffler.....

my question is this.:
will i lose performance? noticably?
for sake of discussionlets say i am stock right now. (on my 93 white s4)

and thanks to you guys that helped me with my MAF issue.
i got the car running no problem. greased up that thing near the
intercooler hose..unplugged the MAF and car was feelin alright....for
now.
