Update:
I ended up taking the cheap route and bought a straight-through Magnaflow muffler (#14862). When I brought it to the muffler shop to get it installed, they said that there "wasn't enough room to fit" normally due to its length, so if I wanted to angle it in order to give it enough space they would need to bend the tubes in between the muffler and the tips, therefore meaning I would need to spend substantially more than a standard installation. So, I made the decision to buy another Magnaflow muffler, this time not straight through, but was shorter (11 inches in length compared to the straight-through which was 14 inches) allowing it to fit in the muffler cavity without much manipulation. Overall, I am a bit underwhelmed. There is an obvious difference between the stock sound, but the amount of sound and raspyness is simply not what I was hoping for. That being said, there is virtually no drone making my highway commutes no worse than my stock setup, while still being able to hear something a little louder than stock when pulling from a red light. I do forsee myself taking out the resonator in the near future to add some volume/more aggressive sound to the system, but I'll need to do a little more research first. |

I recently cut open my muffler and re-worked the routing to somewhat emulate the PE muffler.
I understand this isn't feasible for everyone, but it sounds REALLY good. I plan on taking out the res still, because it isn't loud enough for me or my wife.
