A Dynomax or Magnaflow muffler would probably deaden lots of noice, just go with something straight flowing.

Do they use the sniffer there. If not take the y-pipe off and punch them out. Then turn off the rear o2 sensors. No one will ever know.

I took my cats out and it was horribly loud. I put a 2.5 inch straight threw magnaflow on before the turbo. It sounds pretty good. The turbo spools up faster and you can really hear the turbo threw the exhaust.

JC, was the time in your sig on 5 or 8 psi? Street tires or DR? Just curious. Your set up is almost identical to mine. I've got the same muffler with 3 inch inlet and outlet. Best time i've managed so far was a 14.04 @ 100.53.
