Default resonator replace. need examples

i have secured a location and welder to replace my resonator. im torn between a straight pipe and a glasspack. if anyone could show me a vid of the sound they got and what they did that'd be awesome. im curious as to whether i should widen the diameter instead of stick with the same. will that help for a better sound? or would it kinda make it sound funny? please share your experiences guys. i dont wanna wind up with an accord sounding monte. i have a 4 in fender well intake. so i have some sound already

Don't waste your time removing the resonator, it makes just about no difference at all. Just another piece to rust out at the welds earlier than expected.
