There are no HP differences. The Resonators do not pose any restrictions on the air flow. The pipe is still the same diameter the entire length of the CBE or HFC, the only difference between having the resonators than not is a honey-combed envelope around the pipe to absorb the sound. There are no restrictions to the airflow. This was confirmed by Toni to me when I was ordering my FI HFC/CBE system.
Here are some pictures of my system that shows you how this is constructed. Hope this helps you out some.
