Default exhuast tooo loud

i have a JRSCed b16a3 running ~6psi boost, my custom exhuast consist of kamikaze header with 2.5" down pipe going to 2.5" car sound cat then 2.5" menderal B pipe terminated with a manaflow round muffler-the sound coming from this setup is way to loud/raspy for me, especally around 6K-8K rpm it insanely loud!
i was gonna order a manaflow resontor but was told by the guy i was buying it from that it may help only a little due to the 2.5" piping.

i also thought about getting the cherrybomb/glass pack but also heard that they too are not very good at deadening the sound.

i bet alot of yous have a similar setup, what did yous do to tone down the sound? i would like to tone it down alot.

thanks

is the magnaflow a chambered muffler??? in MY experience with chambered mufflers, i've learned you must use a CAT and RESONATOR in conjunction with the muffler to produce a NON-raspy sound...

in my opinion, just leave the piping alone and get an N1 muffler, i did it, and the sound is NOT raspy at all, sooo much better

well, the muffler is stright through kinda looks like a N1 replica, i have a carsound cat but that did nothing to help deaden the sound, i am looking for a resonator that will bring the sound down dramatically but i just dont know which one to get, hopefully someone with my simlar setup can help me out.

thanks
