Default help me with my exhaust (not another muffler question)

right now i have the cat welded to the header and 2.25 piping for about 3 feet or so (guessing) then a 18" glasspack just before the bends and then a dynomax muffler. im just trying to decide if i should just replace the glasspack with magnaflow 4" diameter 18" long or if i should keep the glasspack and adding the magnaflow right after the cat.

by the way i have a 91 crx with b16 and im trying to quiet down my highway driving.

I would say get a longer resonator. I have 22" long cherry bomb, made highway driving a lot more bearable.

go with the magnaflow right after the cat and then put the existing muffler in. If that doesn't work, you need to look into other muffler/exhaust brands that are quieter imo

I was told that resonators work best when put as far back as possible.

I'd be careful with cherry bombs/glass packs. I've heard the fiberglass burns up in a short amount of time, making the exhaust alot louder. I'd get a good Magnaflow resonator if I were you.
