Default whats the general consensus on a setup like this?

right now i have ps longtube headers, ory, and a dumped dynomax bullet. i love the sound of it now. but i wouldn't want it any louder i don't think. i may be getting a stall and built trans within this year or next year. i have heard that a stall makes the exhaust note quite a bit more "droney" so i was thinking of buying the over the axle piece and adding a magnaflow 4x9 or dynomax ultraflow muffler in the stock location with a turndown. i like not having tips so a normal catback wouldn't cut it for me.

Well I didn't have headers, but I had a slp loudmouth and then a flowmaster in the factory location and it sounded horrible. So I cut the flowmaster off and it sounded better. I mean the loudmouth still sounded horrible, but not AS horrible as before. I am about to put duals, lts, and dynomax bullets. Hopefully I can deal with it.
