Default Deep sounding resonator???

I did a search but I couldnt find anything. I bought a obx catback and it didnt come with a resonator even though the picture had one. anyways. I want one that has a deep sound but not to loud so that when i'm in the car i get a headache. Anyone have any suggestion??? thanks. I have a 93 hb with a d16 in it thanks for the tips.

Use your stock resonator and have the shop weld it on.
It will tone the exhaust note down considerably, but might not get
the tone as deep as you want.

in the past i have just used Dynomax/Thrush glasspacks as resonators on exhausts that didn't originally have them.lowers the overall volume a little and makes the tone deeper.make sure you get one with a perforated core and not the louvered core.you can get them in various sizes for around $20.you may get a little longer life out of a better,more expensive piece(Magnaflow for example)-it's up to you how much you want to spend.

Yep, I did what he said. I have a Thrush "cherry bomb" muffler as my resonator. it cost like $20 at the local autoparts store and helps alot.
