Think you answered your own question. For the money nothing wrong with a glasspack

a true "glass pack" with the louvered inner tube is one of the worse flowing things you could put on a motor.
a dynomax bullet in the cheapest thing that doesn't hurt flow, but they aren't the most quite things.
I personally like and use the dynomax ultra flows. they flow very well, tone down the exhaust and aren't super expensive.

I personally like my Magna flow straight through. Don't get me wrong, a single 4" dumped out the fender with one is still loud, but it is tolerable and has a nice mellow tone.

I would say your turbo is the best muffler

I had glass packs are good, and loud. I change to magnaflows, and I like the quiet until I nail it and all hell breaks lose.

I run a pair of 4"dia. magnaflow with 3"dia. in/out with my true dual 3"dia. with x-pipe and over the axle. I love the way they sound, no dyno numbers yet, but it feels like it's already making a lot more power than my old set-up even @ approximately only 60% throttle. So, these mufflers seems to be flowing pretty good.
