Default Question re: STS Turbo and Muffler Setup

Does anyone have an STS turbo setup on their 4th gen Fbody with a muffler/resonator? If so, how have you run this setup and how does it sound?

I had a local garage install a generic (small) muffler just ahead of the right exhaust tip to quiet down the noise (as our local law enforcement are cracking down on noise).

I don't like how my setup sounds, and am thinking an inline resonator might be a better choice, but am concerned about affecting the exhaust gas to turbine flow if i were to do this.

Any help, recommendations, links or photos would be welcome.

I'd like to know as well I'm currently building my rearmount. I'm assuming that's a off the shelf universal replacement muffler from the exhaust shop?Idk how how quiet it would be but I'm planning on running a dynomax bullet on mine and if its still loud do one pre Turbo. Or you could run a small magnaflow

My STS with gutted cats is still pretty quite. When the cats were still intact it was as loud as when the Edelbrock catback was on the car.

What don't you like about the sound? I'm planning on doing the same as you with a magnaflow bullet. Do you have cats? I do not.
