Difference between these Magnaflows

Made up my mind on getting magnaflow mufflers to go with my 3" True Dual Xpipe setup. Now just wondering if there is a big sound/volume difference between the 14419 bullet and 12229 oval mufflers? Compared in both dumped and out the back setups??

Don't know much about the 12229, but I run the 14419 Magnaflow, and it has a smooth deep tone, but still is damn loud at WOT! Obviously it's not a very big muffler lol

The 14119 will be noticeably louder, even at idle.

I have generic bullets and ran out the back, its loud but sounds like donkey ***. Think I might do the 12229's but dumped to stay to close to that volume level but sound better...

I run the Magnaflow 11219 mufflers on my dumped true dual. They have a deep rumble and are not very loud at idle or cruising. I can drive with windows up or down the exhaust is just noticeable. At WOT they get pretty loud but not bullet or open header loud.

The Magnaflow 11219 is a 4"x9" case with 3" center inlet and outlet. The 12229 is a 5"x8" case with an offset inlet. The 11219 is 1" thinner than the 12229. No drone at all and no cats, Just 1 3/4" headers 3" true duals with X pipe dumped before the axle.

My tips are angled down and out. The tips make a big difference I had no tips on at 1 point and the exhaust resonating and bouncing around under the car made everything on the interior vibrate and rattle.
