New M42 exhaust question

[longms]

I am ordering magnaflow muffler and magnaflow cat. Should I run a resonator in the system? I am looking for a more Euro sounding exhaust. I dont want it to sound too ricey. I know it is a 4-cylinder and it will sound a little raspy.

If you think I should get a resonator which one should I get/go with?

I'd reccomend adding a resonator or possibly a glasspack if you can't stomach the extra cost of a resonator. It is fairly difficult to find something that will fit under there. My magnaflow sounds very good, but it is quite loud. I also have a magnaflow high-flow cat.

Should I get like a 3-4" short muffler through magnaflow or something? like this one below:

Could I do something like this or would a need like an actual resonator? What if I chopped off the OEM resonator and put it between the cat and muffler?
