Default Muffler options for TD setup?

Might be switching to TD setup, the guy who is doing it uses Bullet mufflers. I don't want it to be that loud though, would like it to scream at WOT, with a nice muscle car rumble throughout the powerband. Trying to avoid raspy obnoxious sound. I know Magnaflow makes a few, but what would be the best flowing nicest sounding option for mufflers? I included the size range which my guy recommended to work with:10" to 14" max casing length. Casing width should not excede 5" to 6".
The bullit size is 4" casing width, 10" casing length, and 14" overall.

Magnaflow's bullet-casing mufflers seem like they would be perfect, but keep in mind any bullet type muffler is not going to quiet down the exhaust a whole heck of a lot, but it will be quieter.

Borla also makes bullet type mufflers that might work, but they are much more expensive.

Talk to Tim @ EAD Performance for a quote, he can get good deals on the above mufflers.

For what you are describing, I would recommend Borla XR-1 40085 mufflers. They are a round 5" muffler, 3" in/out. They are fairly quiet at idle/cruise, but scream at WOT. They also have a very deep tone to them with practically no rasp. These are one of my favorite mufflers for a true dual setup. We sell them for $110 each

Otherwise, I would recommend a 6" Round Magnaflow. Not quite as deep, and a bit louder, but about 1/2 the cost.

If you have any other questions, let me know.

Also, if you want to quiet it down some more, and make it even deeper, you can always add a set of high flow cats. The ones I would recommend for your car would be about $65 each.

Cats? What are cats? How well do the Magnaflows flow?

I've always like the moroso spiral flows not too loud crusing but wicked under WOT
