Exhaust way too quiet. I want a deeper sound with minimal drone. Was thinking of removing mid mufflers and replacing them with straight pipe then removing the resonators and replacing them with glass packs. Will this result in a loss of low end torque?

This will not change the low end or mid range torque much if any at all. It should give you some horsepower. You might want to get a cold air intake to go with the exhaust to get the most horsepower gain possible.
You might not want to remove any mid-mufflers as they can often have catalytic converters in them. Removing resonators is fine. Really if you want the most out of an exhaust modification you should up size then entire exhaust to a 2.5" system.
Hope this helps.

Your reply does help. Do you think where the glass packs are placed in the system makes any difference in drone?

Place the mufflers right before the rear axle. It will not make a difference in drone.
