Any longer case straight thru style muffler like Magnaflow or Borla will work well. I would look for around 22-24 inches.

This is probably going to be your best option. Silverado53 just mentioned it also, so I figured I'd chime in and say that I'd go with something along these lines.

The super turbo is making the exhaust very tolerable. I went with it because it's the only muffler close to the size magnaflow that was on there. Has a deep smooth sound with no rasp.
Can you guys post part numbers of the 22" case magnaflow?

Are you running a tailpipe or is it dumped?

Tailpipe, it's the 3" magnaflow exhaust. Being a RCSB, it doesn't have much room to add a big muffler. I'll try to take a video of it this evening and post it here.

How about we trade y pipes
I have a high flow on road pipe made by GM
It has 2 cats and came on my truck from the factory
Its real nice
I run the factory y pipe and no muffler with no turn down under the bed and it's far from bad. The different firing order really tamed the sound on these motors.
