a lot of people throw a bullet in front of a muffler to cut down on the rasp, so that plus the larger muffler should give you a nice, solid sound while not being overly loud..and it should still flow plenty since the bullet is a straight through and the magnaflow flows great

I have had quite a number of aftermarket exhausts over the years and multiple exhausts on a number of vehicles on everything from small displacement v6s all of the way to a supercharged 32 valve v8.
I have found that dynomax super turbos are reasonably quiet and flow well, but probably are not made in 3.5". Borla & Magnaflow are straight through designs and are pretty loud and often have resonance at certain rpms. Flowmaster (can't remember which model) sounds alright but supposedly doesn't flow very well. I am pretty fond of the hooker aerochambers too and I am pretty sure they make a 3.5" muffler...I may try that one on my truck.
One statement I have heard that I buy into the most for exhaust systems is that long tubes make any exhaust about twice as loud.
I think that 3.5" should be adequate unless you are looking to support 600+ hp.
that's my 2.5 cents...hope it's worth something to you
