I don't have any experience with those resonators, but since they say it will 'allow you to take control of your exhaust system's noise level' I would assume (hate doin' that) it will sound close to stock. I replaced my resonator with a Magnaflow glass pack. Since I still have the stock mufflers it doesn't have that loud, obnoxious sound of a glass pack though. At idle it is slightly louder than stock with a lower, mellow tone to it. It sounds great on acceleration and at cruise there is no drone. No farting through the tail pipe on deceleration either. :rotfl: It's much quieter than the videos I watched of the Flowmaster, Loud Mouth, etc. I would say it's closer to the Dynomax exhaust sound, but with a little lower tone at idle. I'm quite happy with the sound, but I wasn't going for loud. YMMV ;)

Ahhh...I thought you still had your mufflers intact. In that case then maybe that resonator will fit the bill nicely. :thumbsup:
