Uhhhh. Not really. In fact I wouldn't be suprised if nothing changed at all. the AFR might change a tiny bit, but as far as REQUIRING a retune I highly doubt it. Maybe some tuner can chime in.

^ that. wont be that big of a change but to get the best gains or in your case goin backwards in your gains a tune would be better.

You don't need a tune at all. As far as the exhaust is concerned, you're going from a straight pipe to a straight pipe. Resonators are straight through. All you're doing is quieting the exhaust tone, not adding any restriction whatsoever.
Even if you were swapping to a high flow cat, they flow enough that there isn't a significant restriction which would require a retune.

This is probably pretty accurate. I don't think the resonation would change the flow a whole lot.

Resonation doesn't change the flow at all. There's nothing inside a resonator that protrudes into the exhaust stream. It's a straight pipe.
Straight through, no restriction, just a quieter tone afterwards

No retune needed. As long as pipe diameter is the same.
