Question glasspack?

I have a glasspack question i dont know a lot about em so keep the rude comments to a minimun lol
I want to put a 12" or longer glasspack on a 2000 ford ranger 3.0 flex will it make it sound deep at idle and then loud if i romp on it if i put a side exit before the tire with a long exaust tip?

I also have heard that the longer the glasspack the deeper the sound is this true?

well based on the vids ive watched, 3.0 rangers with a long glasspack seem to sound good, others either sound ricey or a lot like stock.

it will sound like doo doo... recommend 40 series flowmaster, 1 in 2 out, duals, 3"-4" tips (tips will deepen the sound)..
