Need help choosing MUFFLER

Installed Exhaust Pics
Well, I had a great experience at my local shop to get my exhaust work done. He estimated it would take him about an hour to bend the tubing and install the muffler.
It took him closer to two hours to do it because he redid the bend over the axle so it fit perfectly. Also, the tip now sticks about an inch out behind the bumper and about 3/4 inch from the top.
So the cost of the install was:
1 Hour shop labour - $95
4 Feet 2.5" Aluminized tubing - $16
Dynomax Muffler - $70
I quickly snapped some pictures with my iPod touch at the shop (so bear with me)

It looks good just like mine. Only one thing I would advise you to do once the weather gets a little warmer is to paint your piping with some bbq paint so the piping will last longer. I did that when I got a custom exhaust done on my old nissan and I repainted it every summer and fall and it lasted about 4 years by doing that.
