difference a resonated b-pipe makes...?!

how much does an aftermarket resonated b-pipe make in sound when you have the OEM factory muffler? when you have an aftermarket muffler?

had mine on my car for a week and its nothing but trouble, deep bubbly sound, but it keeps hitting the gas tank hanger when hitting bumps or at idle b/c of the low revs, the pipe shakes enough to bang against the gas tank hanger, its fairly loud in cabin and every shop i take it too fixes it and it comes back after a night of driving in the city, maybe i should just go back to the stock b-pipe!

any ideas?

strnage should be the same as a stock pipe but better perforace. should be bolted the same way too.

I wouldnt use midas, i more recomend small muffler shops. They are naturally competetive because they have to be, while big chains dont need to be at all (they are more like monopolies than buisnesses) a small shop would do it much cheaper
