Default Corsa touring to quiet, want something with more rumble

I've got a 2003 2500HD 6.0 ltr crewcab with SW headers going dual to the muffler where the Y-pipe goes into the muffler then splits again after the muffler. The muffler's a bit too quiet for my tastes although it sounds great at first startup in the morning and when I floor the gas pedal.

What are some good mufflers to use with this setup to have more rumble at idle? I'll probably go true dual, but still contemplating usage of an x-pipe.

I notice that alot of guys on this forum went with the Magnaflows. Anybody have a good *wav file with magnaflows and a 2500 6.0 ltr?

Thanks

Do you have cats? If not, then you have issues! The corsa is quiet and mild when you cruise but louder than a m-phocker when you mash the loud peddel with LT's and no cats.
