Default Aftermarket resonator

Is it worth it to get an aftermarket resonator after getting a muffler delete? I was looking at vibrant resonators and the prices don't seem that bad, but I just want to know if the sound will be any different.

Also, if I were to get a resonator, what size inlet/outlet should I look for and what is the best brand? Wesdon or Vibrant?

Thanks.

I recently got a muffler delete with a custom magna flow resonator on my 08 is250 and it sounds great not too loud not quiet at all either been thinking about also removing both mid mufflers that are under and just keeping the custom resonator with everything else straight piped

it would get rid of some of the drone and rasp I believe. I run the Vibrant ultra quiet resonator 2.5" and I love it's sound although I don't have a muffler delete.

How many resonators do we have? I definitely do want to get new resonators since I already have a muffler delete, but I don't know how many to buy. You mind posting sound clips?

Have you ever used the bottle resonator from vibrant? I was looking at both of these products.
