Default Resonator suggestions?

Planning on doing a custom exhaust and just wondering if anyone is particular towards a brand of resonators. I'm assuming they all function and that a brand shouldn't matter too much. But i have noticed some of them come on different shapes. Input on that? And yes i do want resonators, I live in California, so you can't blame me I wanna be heard, but not pulled over, weird i know.

*Mods please move. Posted in wrong section on accident*

Most people doing the custom exhaust bypass resonators on the v8 models and go straight to mufflers.
I just left my middle one in place and went dual Y pipe to 2.5in to 2magnaflows, it's still not loud enough for me, but pleasant sound of the v8 for public !!
Edited: i'm going to weld another single pipe very soon just to see what it sounds like

I would love not to have resonators but i don't think the local PD would appreciate the extra noise lol. I do plan on going with 3 in piping b/c i do plan on going turbo in the future

Vibrant ultra quiet resonators. Here's the one on my car. A little more substantial than the smaller glass pack sized resonators you typically see.
