Default what is a nice Quiet 3" in/out straight through muffler?

I am looking to replace the 40 series flowmaster on my turbo car, I guess, although I have zero real evidence to say I should. I'm not going to get into that though, I already made another post about that, and I'm over it..
Basically, I am looking for a good quality muffler that will be quiet without compromising power (straight through design) on my 3" exhaust with no cat or resonator. I don't want the tip much bigger than 3", if at all.
Any recommendations/suggestions? Thanks for any help..

p.s. yes, I have searched, but I only found mufflers with huge annoying tips..and that weird aeroturbine unit

for example, my 1.6 sohc is loud as crap with two resonators and a straight through muffler, however my friends 1.8 ls is pretty quiet with only one resonator and muffler (both kteller cat backs)

not quiet, but ss and effective. you are not going to find a straight through quiet 3".

here is my 3" probably the same as he said.

I have 3" all the way back with a 18" long summit resonator in the middle. It sounds great imo, I also think it is quieter than my Apexi dunk was. You cant go wrong with a $26 resonator PS- The 3" straight pipe coming out the back looks great
