Default Quieting down the beast

Hey guys, finally passed inspection after several attempts. If you never read my posts, they destoryed me on a lisence plate light and the cherry bomb i had as a resonator. So i replaced the cherry bomb with a piece of straight pipe and I passed lol. Car is at least 10 times louder (in cabin) and it sounds beyond badass outside. The problem is i commute 60 miles a day and cannot stand the noise. I was wondering what the best glasspack is that I could put in to have a nice sound, with the lowest interior resonance. I found a 35 inch dynomax thrus muffler, and it looks decent. Any tips? I was thinking about going back to a cherry bomb but I destoryed mine in the attempt to get it out (sucker was clamped in there too good) and its too loud for my commute anyway, and i had a red hots by flowtech and i didnt rly like how it sounded. I almost wanna just put the OEM resonator back in because it sounded the best inside the car, but its a lot more money than a glasspack. Let me know guys, my interior resonance is up to you lol

just go back to the cherry bomb, but paint it before you put it on...in case this happens again...or you could try to find a universal resonator and put it on..should have the same effect...

i forgot you had the loud mufflers on there...i have stock mufflers on mine with no resonator and there's just a little difference from stock...not too much..

I can't put back the cherry bomb, i messed it up when taking it out. Plus thats way too loud for my daily commute. I need something free flow that isnt super loud for my highway ride. I am considering going back to stock OEM resonator, let me know if anyone can find one for less than 60$ (found one on ebay). Or if anyone knows of a free flow semi-quiet glasspack
