Default B20VTEC+HEADERS+FULL PIPING=???

right now i have a b20vtec with headers (and other upgrades) and full piping with a stock muffler and my car sounds light sh*t!! it sounds like a damn tin fart can, loud and raspy!! what can i do to give it a more quite deep tone yet not lose hp?? i dont like the looks of resonators either! how its a big tip with a little pee hole! my friend gave me an oval magnaflow 3.5 race series muffler and i was wondering if that would help?? i want something a little more quite with a deep tone with a nice look to it! i like the oval muffler look, not into the canister (megaman arm looking) exhaust!
p.s. i SEARCHED!!!11!!ONE!!!

Buy and install resonators, for one.

WTF? when I hold my car on the 2 step for 5 seconds I shoot a giant white/blue plasma energy ball directly at Spark Mans head.


But seriously, weld another resonator in. Are you running a cat?

Maybe the car sounds funny cause you have headers, try using just one
but seriously you may need a new exhaust setup, like starting with the header all the way back out to the muffler. What kind of brands are you using with your current exhaust?
