Default Exhaust Rasp-Resonator?

Currently running Pacesetter LT's into TSP ORY into Magnaflow Cat-back.
I have read the installing a resonator will help reduce some of the rasp, question is, which one? Who makes em out there?
Any good suggestions or recommendations? The rasp has become louder the more the exhaust has been broken in, thanks.

From what I've read the best thing is to have a bullet style muffler welded into the I-pipe. Theres several different types: spiral flows, sweet thunders, bullets, borla XR-1's, etc and they'll all have the same effect on your exhaust.

Does Maganflow make a bullet style, I have seen people do the "magnamouth" style exhaust.
Any body w/ experience out there on what they are using and their impressions of what they went with?

i have pacesetter headers, ory, dynomax bullet muffler in the i-pipe, and a magnaflow muffler. It is VERY quiet, no rasp or drone, it sounds ok, but even for having long tubes, no cats and open mufflers it is VERY quiet. im actually in the process of removing the bullet muffler.

think of it this way, it sounds pretty close to stock manifolds.

Thanks for the links, I could see the benefit of these especially on duals.
What if I put in a bullet and then a cut-out after that, will that be retarded to do? Or should I put the cut-out before the bullet, I like the idea of it being at the end of the I-pipe, but will I defeat the effect of the cut-out by putting it after the bullet?
Devildoug, are you selling your bullet?
