Default Just a Muffler?

I just want to purchase a MUFFLER. No cat-back system, or duals. Just want a MUFFLER with some guts, and a bigger (wider) tip. Don't want that 'ricer' sound so I'm looking into a 'Borla' or 'Flowmaster'. Can anyone help me out? Thanks!

Want lots more noise go with Flows same power but quieter go with Borla/MOPAR muffler I think they come in single or dual tails. Not sure if you are going to get a lot more power over the turbo muffler which are available for all PT's!

I went with a Dyno Max #17732. Put my own chrome tip on it. Sounds good..not too loud and no drone.

I had a Dynomax muffler on my '01 and I loved it. Not too loud, no drone and with my own chrome tip welded on it it sounded and looked great.

Without cutting the stock pipe, what comes off with "cat-back" exhausts is all one piece - the stock muffler and a long pipe. Look at the singles from Bassani, Borla, BTG - they are basically muffler replacements.

I wanted duals but the cost would be cheaper to go this way.

What is the difference between a Cat-back and this?
From the sound clips it doesn't sound ricey. What about making it into a dual system, that what Im thinking about.
