could possibly adjust the hanger to drop the exhaust off the bumper

resonators get rid of things such as rasp. will often also decrease the dB rating of the exhaust. do you need one is up to you. I'm fairly confident yours should sound pretty ricey, but beauty is in the eye (or in this case) the ear of the beholder.

Wow. I can only imagine what your car sounds like with no resonator.

it does have a rasp. in the car since there is no interior i cant hear myself think its annoying. if i get a resinator will it decrease my hp. the noise doesnt matter because i use it for the track.

Yea if you want to keep your ears from bleeding you might want to get a resonator.

It wont drecrease HP, and it works similar to a muffler (diffuses the exhaust noise by making the sound bounce and travel through a series of passages, or baffles, inside the canister) Highly doubt a Z sounds good with no resonator, i.m.o
