Default What magnaflow to go with?

Ive got a flowmaster 40 right now, and im getting tired of the sound and wanna switch to a magnaflow.
I want to keep it somewhat loud, but not as loud as the flowmaster, i just want a better flowing muffler, and a bit quieter cruising. I have a cutout, so being too quiet wouldnt be a bad thing.

Going with 5x11" here, 22" long dual in dual out Magnaflow case. A single in single out would be even quieter. The larger the muffler is by volume, the quieter it is.
