I have a 2020 GMC YUKON 5.3 and i removed the resonator by the back bumper and the flapper valve. Literally no change in sound. I did the same on my 2014 and it sounded perfect for what i wanted. I thought it would have been the exact same sound enhancement but no. What's the best exhaust system/muffler just to get a little bit of sound. i don't want to hear it on the interstate with the stereo on. Just a tiny bit of sound so you know there's a v8 under the hood. Basically, the quietest aftermarket that's still louder than stock.

probably something like a 3 chamber flowmaster would likely fit the bill
they make them single/2 chamber/3 chamber, you should be able to look on there website and reference what I am referring too

I put a Magnaflow on mine, but can't remember the model...sounds good....took off the resonator also.

Best Bet is probably Magnaflow.... Kirk Robinson and Exhaust Addicts on Youtube have a good amount of install videos with sound notes you can compare

I'd suggest the flowmaster pro series 3". That's what I have on my 6.2 with tsp long tubes, cats and 3" all the way out. Even with headers, the sound is civilized until you don't want it to be.
