Default help me decide muffler options!

I just removed my Gibson split dual exhaust (for sale) and although i loved the sound and look, I had to go a different route due to not wanting to crush the tips or can offroading. I am not trying to decide what to do with my 2012 JKUR. I currently have a vibrant high flow resonator in place of the factory one and want to keep it to cut down drone unless someone can guarantee a system without any. I was thinking of putting a muffler right after the resonator, removing the stock muffler, and welding on a 45 degree elbow with a slant tip just before the bumper all tucked up. I like the idea of getting a Dynomax muffler due to their guarantees and such. I'm stuck between the VT and the Turbo mufflers. I want it to be tamed at cruising speeds but sound good at green lights and hard accelerations. Back pressure is important for sure because I ran no muffler already and saw the huge sides that came with it. Lets hear some opinions!

What drops did you see with no muffler. And you can also look at the flow master series I hear 10 is loud and the 40 and 50 are a bit tamer.

Thanks for the tip. With no muffler I noticed less engine braking and less acceleration. Plus it sounded really crappy outside the jeep

I tried a dynomax turbo in the stock location for a few months and it wasn't bad.some drone around 1500 rpms. Upgraded to the the welded muffler and the sound at start up was awesome however the drone made all the passengers insane.both of those are sitting in my shed and I am waiting on the dynomax vt to arrive.
