Default Twin loop muffler

I currently have a 2.25" mandrel bent exhaust with no resonator and a muffler i got from my friend. Here is the muffler: http://www.racerpartswholesale.com/bosal1.htm
it is straight through and stainless steel. Anyway, the sound of my exhuast is deep, although pretty loud, and i think it sounds good. That is until it gets to about 4500rpms and it has a buzzy sound. This is usually only at wot or when the car is cold. I was wondering if i got a twin loop exhaust if it would be quieter than what it is now and not have the buzz sound? I found a replica twin loop on ebay that looks ok to me. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...51654 Do you think this would be any good?

It should be fine, but you'll need to get hangers put onto the canister and it'll weld directly onto your B-pipe instead of using a flange. My friend just got the same thing off of eBay. Word isn't in yet tho on his.

The one I have already has the hangers welded on and flanged piping, but I paid around $200 for mine. I've had it for 2 years now. I never get tired of hearing nothing. There are times when I wonder if it's a huge restriction or not, but another dyno session will tell me that.

Could you get back to me on the quality and sound of the one your friend bought when he gets it? It just seems like $50 is really cheap for it to be good quality

I was thinking of this set-up

High Flow Cat
Mandrel Bent piping 2.25
Hytech twin loop muffler

This sound good?

i would think it would be fine. I think the hytech is 2.5" though. It also costs like $350-400 for just the muffler. Its too expensive for me, but i would think it would be good. You might also want to add a resonator to make it even more quieter
