Default Pypes Universal Xpipe

Im looking on jegs at the Pypes 2.5" xpipe that mounts in the driveshaft tunnel. It says it's 21" wide so im wondering if thats good enough to fit Hooker longtube headers. I understand most likely some modifications are going to have to be made to get it to fit but im wanting to know if it's a close enough fit that i can make it work. http://www.jegs.com/p/PYPES/Pypes-Un...59309/10002/-1

Also im looking at mufflers to mount before the axle and would like to get some opinions. My main goal is to be able to hear my radio and talk to my passengers with out yelling. Would the 3" dynomax race bullet muffler part number 289-24222 work http://www.jegs.com/p/Dynomax/Dynoma...49870/10002/-1 or would the flowmaster off set in center out delta force 40 seires race muffler partnumber 389-9430419 be the way to go? http://www.jegs.com/p/Flowmaster/Flo...44765/10002/-1 My only concern with the flowmaster would be ground clearance, and if i would need a off set in center out muffler or a center in off set out muffler. Thanks!

Flowmasters will probably be louder inside the car than bullets. They will sound better, but they drone bad.
They will fit though if you beat in the floorpans under the rear seats.
