I have done a lot of searching around on the forums and all over the internet, but i still havent really found what im looking for!

So any input is appreciated!
-So my exhaust consists of stock headers and the stock cat running into the stock resonator.
- After the stock resonator I removed the pre-muffler and installed a straight pipe leading back to the y pipe which obviously leads to the rear mufflers which I have replaced with Magnaflow mufflers (specifically part # 14827). The current setup sounds great! It's real deep!, not raspy one bit and I love it, but I am wanting it to be a little more "louder" meaning that I still want it to have that real deep tone but be more noticeable at a little bit higher revs and not have a raspy sound.
- I was thinking if I replaced the stock resonator with a magnaflow resonator would help me! Or maybe straight piped to the rear mufflers!
- If anyone could help me with this or help me figure out what resonator would be right for me please put in some thought!

Thank you!

If you just run straight pipe from the cat back, you're going to have a lot of cabin drone. I have grown tired of it, and am considering a resonator.
My car has that slight amount of rasp to it, to where it's not weedeater annoyingly civic loud, but it's loud enough to be noticeable from a distance. It's a deep rasp, if that makes sense.

I have 2.5" pipe from the cat back, to one muffler though.

Honestly, though, there is no way to describe it and you perfectly understand, nor is there any way to record it and it sound 100% accurate. Just get the straight pipe, then add a resonator if you feel like you need it.
