Default mid pipe question

I have a HKS axle back and was wondering if i took out the resonator on the stock mid pipe and make it a straight pipe would it create alot of rasp with stock header?

I'm surprised there will be no rasp at all without the resonator, does anyone here have that set up?

The HKS is a deep toned can that does good job of drowning out the higher raspy notes,with stock header yo are already taking a lot of rasp out of the exhaust already,this is why they put such a crappy resonator ont he car stock,a really good one is not needed that tunes out sound.
