Yes, this are the middles resonators, a pair before the rear axle.
There is another pair at the front.
Removing rear ones apparently gives more effect and a great one as well.
I've done same thing and you won't know it's done inside, only when you floor it, but nothing drone alike.
And if it's not enough you always remove front ones later on.

Yeah, you will struggle to get any droning in these cars. The sound proofing is so good
