i went to everlast and they made me up a 2.5" custom exhaust with a lukey muffler, and a tip for $300. sounds good and has that drone sound at about 1300-1400rpm, so i presume yours would be somewhat the same.

How do the lukey mufflers compare to redback?
Everyone who has a redback single muffler setup seems to say its very loud, whereas people who have a single lukey muffler say how the sound is perfect and not too loud. Im still not sure hether i want a rear resonator or a straight through rear section.
