Any Recommendations For High Performance, Quiet Muffler?

[Gramp's E30]

This may not be the right audience to ask about a quiet muffler , but I'm middle-aged and like quiet road trips. Any suggestions for a high performance (high flow), quiet-as-possible muffler?

Stock? Or are you trying to get the car even quieter than that?

Stock or quieter. Good quality - one that doesn't sacrifice flow for quietness. The previous owner installed a Magnaflow about a year ago and it's too loud for me. I'm installing Miller's MAF / chip, 19 lb injectors, and deleting the cat. Not sure if it matters for new muffler consideration, but you all are a lot smarter than me with this stuff. Appreciate any guidance.

I don't like magnaflo. I would go to stock or maybe borla with a long end pipe so it's not loud

If you're deleting the cat and want a quiet exhaust, you're going to want to run a center muffler where it used to be. It's going to be hard to beat stock on a quiet/flow ratio without doing some real custom work and retrofitting newer tech IMO.

Also keep in mind to avoid those cone air filters as those add a lot to the loudness of the exhaust.
Stock is nice and silent.
