Edit: Before I purchased the 18" I was considering a 12". A lot of forum members who run FI let me know that Tony recommends starting quieter. It's easier to go louder then to try to change down to an 18". Just something to think about if you are on the fence about sound.
I actually would prefer the 18" resonators as I am looking for a deep sounding exhaust that won't give me a headache while on the highway. My previous car had a race header and 2.5" exhaust piping and the drone got to me sometimes.

I saw the recommendation for 12" resonators for folks that will be using stock cats either in the Fast Intentions thread or website. I looked through both again but can't find it now.

From the sound of it, the 18" resonators fit with the stock cat. I wonder what the "drone" difference is between the 12" and 18" on stock cats.
