Which resonator should I buy?

I know this topic has been talked about a lot but haven't found any info for my specific problem. Currently I have rv6 v3 j pipe and an xlr8 non resonated catback with the prt chamber deleted. If you don't know the prt chamber is basically a small resonator they say reduces drone but did nothing imo. Normally I would try welding back in the the prt chamber but I hear people still get rasp with that in so it jsut seems like a waste.
So I'm wondering which resonator do you guys think would work best for me? I would like to lose least amount of volume possible and all of the rasp

heres some I've read about

magnaflow 10416
magnaflow 10436
Aero ar25
vibrant ultra quiet

if you've got any experience with any of this please leave me your opinion

I put the Magnaflow 10416 on my 3.5 liter (AEM V2 > XLR8 j-pipe > Magnaflow 10416 > deleted 'mid-muffler' & straight piped > stock) and is sounds wonderful. Deep, muscular, zero drone. Get the M10416 and I think all your issues will be resolved.

I actually did it should be here Wednesday I think it's gonna be too white but hopefully no rasp and I'll live with the quietness cause there's tons of drown but it didn't bother me much since I never drive it long. I've got everything ported on the intake side so I feel it's closer to the sound of a 3.5 anyways is good to hear

Well got it put in and it sounds exactly like it did before the j pipe so I guess that's good there's a little less drone too. So if you have raps with a non resonated exhaust after putting in a rv6 j pipe the magnaflow 10416 should get rid of all your rasp

I am very happy with the way my exhaust sounds currently. I still can't figure out by your post if you want rasp or if you don't? I wanted 0 rasp, medium volume, a nice rich tone, and minimal drone - and I achieved that perfectly IMO. Here's my setup (which I have yet to see done exactly like this): Stock j-pipe > 3rd cat delete > stock resonator/mid muff > rear muffs delete. I also love that I've spent less than $50 doing this. :-)

i said I would like to LOOSE the least amount of volume possible and ALL OF the RASP. I did achieve that though. Normally I would have just done a custom exhaust but I already had an xlr8 catback and installed an rv6 j pipe so if feels stupid to loose power going back to stock j pipe just to get rid of rasp when I could weld in a resonator.
Surprised you don't have rasp with no cats and only the stock resonator I know talking to Richie at rv6 he recommends a big resonator to get rid of it think it's like 6in around and 20 something long.

But moral of the story if you get rasp with a non resonated exhaust and a rv6 j pipe weld in a magnaflow 10416 and it should all be gone I know it's a common problem as I've already helped two people with it and read a bunch of people complain on Acurazine.
