Default need to get quieter what are my options?

i bought a skunk2 mega power exhaust and thought it was pretty cool at first but after almost a year of it im really wanting something else its really too loud for daily even with the silencer.. aside from buyinga new exhaust what could i do to quiet it down can i weld other tips on? or if i found an axleback say greddy evo 2 or apexi ws2? could i use that.. i also liked the sounds of the twin loop mufflers but am havin a hard time finding a reputable company that makes them anyone hae experience with the quality of the cheaper imitations of the twin loop? any help would be appreciated

Either get a muffler welded on the existing pipe or get some resinators is all i can really think of without buying another axle back or cat back exhaust.

Get a Tanabe.. as long as it's not a canister type exhaust.

resonator will quiet it down some. I have a vibrant 3", straight design but look like a normal one (the sleeper muffler lol). Sounds great, not too loud but not too quiet either.

ya thats where i wanna be not too loud and not too quiet just enough so i can tell i have an exhaust but less in your face than the skunk2 is.. so im definitely shying away from any n1 style muffler i just want a nice deep low tone which the ws2 seems to be the crowd favorite here

so can i just buy the ws2 tip? and then just have it be welded on the existing piping.. there already is a resonator on this exhaust system and correct me if im wrong but a lot of the sound comes from the muffler depending on if its straight through like mine or more restricted like the oval types.. at least thats what i have always thought
