Another vote for the Magnaflow.
I ran a Spintech replacement muffler for a while and enjoyed the sound- it was deep at idle and screamed up top like a banshee, but it proved to be a little restrictive on the dyno (but, since you have an elec. cutout, that should not matter too much).

Most seem to suggest the SLP DUAL/DUAL for quiet, but very nice flowing

The dual/dual is hands down the quitest. It's barely louder than stock but still flows well. I am taking mine off because it is too quiet and replacing it with the LoudMouth, since I don't forsee me getting headers anytime soon.

As always, I'd have to recommend the Hooker - it's the best flowing crossflow, sounds good, no drone or rasp, and is reasonably priced.
