Vibrant Ultra Quiet Resonator vs Glasspack type?

My evo8 is super loud. I been sitting here for about an hour reading on resonators and haven't came across anything specific, someone says one thing, then someone says something else.

What would lower my exhaust more, the (muffler type) vibrant u.quiet resonator or a glasspack type?

Vibrant [muffler type] - http://vibrantperformance.com/catalo...products_id=47

Glasspack - http://vibrantperformance.com/catalo...roducts_id=292

As much as i enjoy the loud sound, being at around 1100rpm idle (2.3L) is just to loud.

Edit: Muffler type => glasspack

I got rid of my POS raspy buschur exhaust and put on an invidia which had the glass pack style resonator. i also added the muffler type, actually the exact one pictured. Now its really quiet at idle but still fairly loud driving.

i can try and snap some pics. I run no cat so i used the muffler type resonator to make a resonated test pipe. Im still breaking this engine in so i don't about the power diff. I would imagine next to nothing or nothing as its straight through.
