Default Which Magnaflow muffler?

I just picked up a 02' 1/2ton Yukon XL. It looks like the exhaust merges after the cats to a single 3" tube into the huge stock muffler and then exits the muffler via twin tubes that merge back to one as they bend over the axle.
I just want to replace the muffler as everything seems like it would flow well otherwise. I think the magnaflow 5x11 that has a 22" body with single 3" in and dual 3" out is the one I need.

Has anyone else done this, and if so, how did you like it?

Thanks.

That's the Magnaflow that I just put on my '00 Sierra and I like it better than the Flowmaster or the Imco setups I've had before. At idle, it's a little bit louder than stock...sounds great under acceleration and NO highway drone like the Flowmaster & Imco.

I think you'll like it...I sure do!

I have the 22x11x8 dumped before the axle, it sounds good...pretty mellow. The 5x11x22 youre looking at should sound great through stock exhaust.
