[Shotimes] yet another muffler question

[Ron Porter]

Define "loud". Run open exhausts!!

The best "loud" muffler is the Edelbrock RPM. IMHO, it is the best balance
of loud and good tone.

The car will sound like absolute shit without a resonator!! The rasp will be
obnoxious. Think of 10,00 very loud bee farts!!

A big resonator is the key to a good exhaust sound in a V6. Forget about the
loud, a good tone with no rasp sounds the BEST.

Raspy V6s make the car sound REALLY bad. Josh runs with open exhaust on his
s/c '95 at track events, and it sounds AWFUL...not powerful..just BAD(as in
SUCKS).

So will these mufflers give me the loudness that i am looking for? also 
should i cut off the resonator?
another option is to have one muffler, with dual exits.
