exhaust too loud! questions

so i just bout a 05 cobalt ss/sc. the last owner installed a cat-less zzp downpipe. it made the exhaust a little to raspy for me. i just installed a magnaflow muffler to see if i could change the sound a little, maybe a little deeper. it sounds good its just a little to loud for me. also it over powers the whine of the supercharger and that makes me sad....lol. if i were to put on a resonator would that quite it down. i have heard yes and no. i am not sure what to do. when driving normal it sounds really nice, but once i get on it, it is way to much. any suggestions? please let me know. thanks

Yeah some type of resonator will do just fine if you get a good one.

I needed a high flow cat, magna flow resonator and muffler to hear a 3.1 pulley. Plus with this set up the exhaust sounds nice, despite my D/p noises.....
