Glasspack or Resonator Delete or ?

So I have just removed my track pipe and installed a magnaflow. Sounds pretty quiet. What do you think will get more growl? Not looking for performance just more sound but I also don't want to lower performance.

A. Replace the resonator with a straight pipe
B. Replace the resonator with a glasspack
C. Replace resonator with a larger diameter 3" pipe

Trying to stay away from ricey just want a lower grumble. The track pipe was too much sound for me.

Went with A and must say I am very happy. Resonator delete with the magnaflow. Very even amount of sound coming from the front and back of the car with my sound tube delete. Not ricey but a very smooth sounding growl when you are on it. Cant stress the smooth part enough.

Do droning and not too much noise at 80.
