Default Should I cut off my res?

I have a magnaflow 14 something right now, and it sounds nice, but it's a bit too quiet.. How much louder will a res delete be?

Do you have 1.8T?

That's my old setup, everything stock up to where the old mid-muffler was (pipe welded in its place) with the Magnaflow at the end. Sounded good but it droned a lot. Now I've got a high-flow cat, 2.5" exhaust after the 3" high-flow cat, and a Magnaflow resonator as well. And at this time I'm contemplating a resonator that will quiet my exhaust further.
