Default Muffler options/ideas

Im wanting to put either a single muffler where the I pipe is or 2 mufflers before each tip, it sounds great except when i get on it hard,, it sounds bad inside the car, does anyone run a single where the I pipe is,

what is your current exhaust setup? what muffler are you using? in your sig it says your running a cattey y with no mufflers? if so a bullet muffler in the I would be enough imo, it will help alot. since you have cats too, it will sound pretty awesome. i vote magnaflow bullet. or borla for a little louder tone.

its a straight through design but it has holes in the tubing and its stuffed with material i think it has loosened up (deepened tone) a little since that video but i still love the sound.

I have a dynomax bullet in the i pipe with a round magnaflow under the bumper. i love the way it sounds nice and deep with lots of tone and just the right amount of volume.
