Default New Muffler questions

I have searched the various exhaust threads and have decided to just buy a new muffler and have it welded on at a shop. That being said I would love any opinions on these mufflers
-Gibson Superflow- offset/offset 2.5"
-Magnaflow SS-offset/offset 2.5"
-Flowmaster 50 Series Deltaflow-offset/offset 2.5"
-Flowmaster 50 Series SUV- offset/offset 2.5"

I own a exhaust shop and I tried Magnaflow and Flowmaster and then the Aero and I kept the Aero much better sound I thought. I used a Aero 2525 and a 4" chrome tip. Came out pretty good I think. I have a picture in my gallery. Hope thats help you.

I relocated my muffer (flowmaster 50 series delta flow same side offset) under the driver seat. At first I wasn't overly excited about the sound because I wanted it deeper. The more I drove it, the more solid it sounds. I'm happy with it now. It's not obnoxious, no drone, not loud and I've gained over 1 mpg (roughly 1.6). This was after hundreds of miles and numerous tankfulls of testing. I track it every time I fill up.

Default MagnaFlow

I bought the Wood's relocating kit, with it you get the MagnaFlow muffler. I love it, I've had them on diesels and gas motors and like them all. That would be my first chioce.

Do you have the 40, super 40 or 40 series Delta Flow.
I've thought about experimenting with the 40's since I have a 50 Delta now.
Any drone?

Thanks
