Default Which exhaust for my mods

I have a 4.8 5spd with the listed mods and a cam in the future. Which exhaust would you recommend. I want stealth exhaust (not seen). Im thinking of single 3 inch with a hooker, but i know the hooker is straight thru and i have a lot of pop when i let off of it now with my dual tips and hooker. I dont know if i want that yet. Im gonna dump it over the axle or at the bumper. What do you guys recommend for me. Is a single 3inch too much for the 4.8? Will the hooker have rasp? Will i need a chambered muffler? Please give me your thoughts.

Thanks,
Derek

I dont think a single 3" is too much. Ive had popping with my older blowmaster setup when letting off the pedal, a freer flowing exhaust will get rid of that.

**** a chambered muffler go straight to a 3" round magnaflow, less resonance at cruise and better sound at WOT you cant go wrong.

you'll be fine with a single 3" in/out aerochamber muffler with 3" tubing. dump it after the axle too.
