Default TD muffler help!

Well I changed my mind again, sold the y-pipe and decided to go with a TD x-pipe set up again (2.5").

Currently I have a 3" cat and 3" Hooker Aerochamber Muffler, I don't want to deal with having tons of 2.5" to 3" conversions so pretty much this whole thing is getting redone.

This will be off of Pacesetter LT's.

What do you guys think, cats or no cats? Honest opinions/justification please.

What would be a good muffler choice?
Race Bullet style mufflers are out of the question, its my DD and I don't want something that will drone or be obnoxiously loud.

I'm leaning towards no cats and 2 2.5" Hooker Aerochamber Mufflers, let me know what you guys think...

I am using a Maganaflow dual in/dual out and I love the sound.
