Adding another resonator to my exhaust? Experienced opinions wanted

Hey all,

I hope this doesn't get moved to the exhaust section because I'd like some exposure to the sedan guys first. So as some of you may know.. I've installed Strup test pipes, nismo y-pipe, coupe middy, and HKS axle-back. The gains are INCREDIBLE.. and it sounds fantastic.. but the rasp is just killing me! I've heard adding another resonator to the exhaust is the best way to go... but what would I add and where would I install it?

Any help/links would be great

I don't know if a resonator would help unless is a ginormous one. IMHO, a diff rear muffler might help.

Usually people add resonated X pipes to reduce the rasp of TPs. But You can't really do that here.

I was considering installing a longer resonator in the coupe midpipe. Like one for a motorcycle, etc... eh fuggit! My guy down at the muffler shop said that ought to help quite a bit. I'll be paying $130 after all is purchased and installed... so I'm just gonna go ahead and do it. It can only make it better, no way worse. I'll let you all know how it sounds when I get it back this time tomorrow evening.

Keep us posted in the results. Honesty... this is the reason I won't ever go with test pipes.
