Default hooker muffler replacement?

I've had a hooker catback for 5 years now, and i'm wanting something different and louder. anybody know if there is a universal muffler that fits in place of the aerochamber?? it's just a triangle flange with 3 bolts, not sure what all the others are. Seems like a better option than getting a whole new catback.

i hear that's about as quiet as the hooker...

i'm thinking maybe get a sweet thunder bullet, put it on the I pipe which already goes over the axel, and branch that off into two tips... hmmmmmmm.

yes it does.

any idea what kind of flanges the magnaflows have? a direct bolt in replacement would be nice if possible.

EDIT: nvm they probably come flangeless now that i think about it... just have to weld one on.
