Default 1992 Resonator Replacement

PO modified 92s exhaust to be free flowing leaving only resonator to muffle sound. While it sounds good, gets old on longer trips. Love the muffler eliminator look and don't want to change that. Is there a muffler to replace the resonator that would tone it down a bit without making it stock quite? I looked at some local stock but the dual inlet/outlet on the factory resonator were closer than the available dual replacement mufflers. Any suggestions or help to offer?

If it is the stock resonator, then removing it will probably add some drone and be louder.....I replaced the resonator on my 1991 ZR-1 a Magnaflow muffler / xpipe. But I have the stock mufflers still in place, so it's quiet and doesn't drone. The stock mufflers on these cars cut out a lot of the noise and drone.
