Default What brand makes a quality resonator?

I know this isn't an exhaust forum but it is the most active. My exhaust is insane right now. DCRH so no cat, all the sound absorbing material blew out of my resonator, 2.5" magnaflow piping to a Hayame fartcan that does nothing. The car is faster (I have an acceleration meter aka g-force meter) but way too loud for DD. Here is the dilemma: I want a resonator that will make the car quiet enough that I don't need the silencer in the muffler but won't slow me down too much. Magnaflow Wide Open series? -- http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...wItem How much would it slow me down if I welded 2 of those resonators onto the midpipe?

I'm probably going to go with Magnaflow's Wide Open series. Would two of those (I really want to cut down on rasp) slow the car as much as 1 cheap resonator from AutoZone would?

^Looks good. $70 for a 22" shipped! I have never heard anything bad about Kteller either.
