Default custom exhaust? need help

im getting custom exhaust for my stock ej8 and want something pretty quiet. i plan on keeping the motor stock but need a new exhaust system because mine is kinda messed up. i was thinking an es oval muffler with a 12 in long resonator on 2 1/4in piping. is this going to be a nice setup? im not interested in performance gains, just price and a quiet, decent sound. also, can anyone give me a site as to where to find a cheap resonator?

I like this muffler, personally:

Not too loud, and it looks nice.

Your idea is pretty much perfect for what you want. 2 1/4 is the best size for a stock ej8 (which I assume still has the D in it), the es oval is quiet and stock looking with a little more oomph than stock, and the resonator will mellow out the sound even more, get rid of any raspiness or bumble-bee-buzzing, and make it just a tad quieter.

Magnaflow makes a good, cheap resonator. I put one on my car and changed the sound from rice to nice. No more farting or rasping.
