Default Suggestion for a performance resonator for my 2002 turbo S60?

I'm running a deleted Muffler and it sounds great I'm about to go symmetrical duals and want to improve the Sound by replacing the stock resonator and still keeping the proper back pressure. Any suggestion will be helpful. Thanks

Your car is Turbo'd........back pressure is only an issue with NA cars. I have the same car as you and im running a straight pipe from the cat-back to a Maxspeed muffler. My car runs prefect and still getting 24-26 mpg.

why less horsepower the back pressure won't change because there's a turbo there; and 2: heavier I don't think so I did delete the heavy Muffler.

I need to replace oem resonator. Suggestions? Won't go straight pipe. That'll be too loud. Maybe this big guy
