Depends on many things, brand of Mufflers, what model of that brand, age and wear of the muffler, and then same factors for the resinator.

I got a 2.5" cat back with 2 mufflers and a resonator. It's still too loud for me! The worst bit is the resonance at 1500-2000rpm I can feel the vibrations throughout the dash.

When I get some time, I'll be going back to a nice stock system I think.
