If so, could you please provide video of how it sounds? How's the drone? I had an aftermarket muffler on my WK and it drove me insane after the initial fun wore off.

... I can't find anything on Youtube, everyone has removed the resonator!

I have a super 44 with the resonator still on. Drone is tolerable but there are definitely times it bothers me (I understand what you mean with your WK). I'll try to post up a video of it later tonight.

You can hear my tires as well as the drone with the windows up.

Yeah, it's been a few months since I last did anything to the KK and this is all I can think of right now. I don't think I'd want something as loud as a Super 44 as that was the mistake I made last time!

Try the magnaflow then, with the resonator it should still sound pretty good

Yes Super 44 is loud. I have had a dump and now a side exit and the side exit helped lower the inside noise but it is still loud. I like it but to each their own. Magnaflow is probably a better option for keeping things tolerable. Depending where you live also if you can find a decent muffler shop ask them they should be able to give you an idea what to expect from different options. :2cents:

This time around, I want something I can hear... not everyone else.

I have a Magnaflow muffler with NO resonator and I don't get any drone in the cabin. You can hear it when you get on it but cursing down the highway you really don't hear much. I have the radio on most of the time and at low to moderate volume levels you can't hear the exhaust at all.
