Resonated Exhaust Tips?

Hello again guyz, I posted in WTB exhaust tips looking for said exhaust tips and a GT bumper. Also in this section too about "dualing" out the car. I went to the junkyard this weekend and found some resonated exhaust tips on a Monte Carlo. (also found other goodies) I cut them off and it's a 2.25 inlet so it's the inlet size, with a 3.5 inch outlet. I want to know, what's the real difference in sound between a resonated tip and one that isn't resonated? Does the resonated tip make the muffler sound deeper compared to a non-resonated tip? Does it make it louder or quieter? I have a Magnaflow #11225 and I'm ordering another one. Also, the dude at the shop would sell me a used magnaflow muffler. It's in/out is 2.5 but someone put a 2.25 adapter/tip on the inlet. He says it'll be the same sound, but I ordered a #11225 though Amazon just to be safe. I know the used one can fit, but would it really sound the same. My muffler has a deep, mellow tone to it, Since Magnaflow mufflers don't have part #s on them I measured it and it looks to be a #11226. I listened to a few of those muffler sound clips and to me it's not deep enough. I researched the muffler that I have on right now because I wanted a deep, calm tone. Of course, the 11226 isn't on GPs since it's 2.5, but the guy said it'll be the same sound as a 11225. Any thoughts about that? thanks.

here's a pic of the tips, just $20 for both.


while they're on the monte carlo
 


I doubt you'd notice a difference just because the size of the tips is small in length and it's at the far back of the car and likely sticking out from under the bumper some.

Now if there were like 14-20in long on like a crown vic, mustang, truck they might muffle more.
