    Best resonator/muffler placement

    Hey guy I have a question about where exactly I should have my resonator placed. I have a 2012 a4 2.0t it has a catless downpipe and was completely straightpiped up untill recently. I wanted to get a more refined sound I like it being loud and drone doesn't bother me to much but with it being fully straight piped it was a little to much for me. So I just put in a magnaflow magnapack and it sounds much better and definitely more refined but it quieted it down a lot way more than I was expecting. I currently have the magnapack installed right before the rear tires. I'm wondering if you guys think that's the best spot for it or should I move it closer to the downpipe or further back right before the tail pipe or if changing the location of the magnapack will effect the sound of the exhaust at all? I would just like it to be a little louder and be able to get back some of the burbles I had when it was straight piped. I'd appreciate any input. I know there's a huge exhaust thread but I couldn't find anything regarding the best position for the magnapack or how the position will impact the exhaust sound

    Do you think the vibrant is louder than the magnapack?
