you need a resonator maybe? I doubt it's your B-pipe that is making it ricey. Most likely it's that Magnaflow muffler. Get a 20" resonator in your magnaflow pipe and it should sound a lot better.

yes. Any resonator will be fine, I don't think magnaflow resonators are any more than $25 or $30.

A resonator is just a small muffler. If you get a good straight-through one with a perforated core (like the Magnaflow), then the length of the resonator will not have a big impact on pressure. That means that a longer resonator will make your exhaust quieter than a shorter resonator, but it won't make the exhaust more restrictive.

Go with the longest one that will fit. If your choices are 18" and 22", go with 22" as long as it will fit.
