Default Exhaust Question

Have a 1992 SC400 and have a question. I have searched and have not found any of my questions answered about the exhaust. My car has 3 resonators on it and 2 cats.

I have recently gutted the 2 front cats and straight piped them, into the the first resonator. Then deleted this resonator along with another straight pipe. In other words, I have straight pipe from headers to the last 2 resonators. I wanted to know if I deleted the 2 resonators on the STOCK exhaust mufflers, what kind of sound would I get?

I have found countless videos and ideas on here, but NOTHING on deleting the front 2 cats, and the first resonator in the middle, along with deleting the last 2 towards the mufflers? Any ideas, or suggestions, leave the resonators or remove them? Any videos links with this setup? Too loud?

I am running stock size piping on all the fittings, in other words, what ever size it changed to from front to back, thats what size I used. I live in Bama and not worried about emissions!

Update. I deleted the resonators today with straight pipe, and I must say, it sounds good.. It finally has a growl to it. No droning in the car or outside. Sounds even a little aggressive at idle, and better the more you push it. I will keep this setup for awhile and maybe eventually go to Magnaflow or Flowmasters. Just wanted to let everyone know the outcome. Very Pleased.
