Question I bought a mellow magnaflow muffler. Now which B-pipe?

I ordered this...

Magnaflow 14832 high flow muffler



Now which b-pipe to keep it mellow after i get Weapon-R down pipe? Anyone with a similar set-up to share sounds at WOT? If i'm 1st, i'll be sure to share when all gets installed.

I currently have a WR "header", stock b-pipe, and Megan OE-RS with the baffle installed. I got the Megan because the HKS was too loud. If is still a bit loud for my taste, but tolerable. I would like to add a second muffler or resonator. So my recommendation would be to do a custom b-pipe with two resonators or resonator and 2nd muffler.

So your not making max power. You should think of the engine exhaust like a body. The intake allows more air (food) into the engine but if you are not doing anything with the bagpipe (small intestine but make the exhaust (large intestine) bigger still corks the exhaust. You only free the exhaust system by opening the whole exhaust (track per se) system. So I'm still looking for a b-pipe. But how do u like the WR header for sound/power? Thank you. I wasn't attacking you btw.

In your terminology: I feed my car a high fiber forced induction meal, so my farts may vary in sound quality!

The WR "header" was not fun to put on! Very difficult to reach every single bolt. Removing both cats makes this car much louder and not in a good way.
I believe there is some added power, mostly I noticed it revs faster.
