Default exhaust noise?? HELP

first off its a 96 teg ls my stock muffler broke and was in the process of getting a aftermarket one. however, i had taken off the cat and replaced it with a testpipe and got custom 2 1/4 inch piping from the testpipe back to a flowmaster muffler (no resonator). the exhaust is too loudcould it be that there is no resonator. i need something quieter and will sound decent when im ripping it. im looking to just weld on a different muffler. what do you guys suggest i do. im really not looking for a whole new exhaust system. ive been looking at the apexi n1 mufflers and skunk2's.

the resonator is before the muffler after testpipe. i dont think you can buy just a resonator.

true but you can go to the junkyard and cut one off a catback out there and get it welded back into your exhaust. I have one off my old exhaust but i dunno the size of the piping lol

also not having a cat will make your car louder, faster and dirtier.
