Yes... It will sound ricey and really loud.
Like Anthony said, the Magnaflow will sound okay at first...
In Delaware you need the stainless system, which comes with an Ultraflo
or Borla muffler.
I went with the Ultraflo, because this way I can cut it off and have it
exchanged for a new one at my local WD, whenever I need to.
This is especially useful if you have to swap exhaust to another car.

I have the 2 1/4" TT with the Magnaflow and the resonator,
I don't like the way it sounds, and it would sound even worse without a
resonator.

They have a dual tip that fits their exhaust and the S216V,  part no. 254
270,
and it's ~$35.
I think that is what the "post a while back" referred to.
