Default Best FM muffler for decently loud daily driver?

Hey guys really quick easy question. My car is a 92 gt bone stock everywhere. I had an lx with flowmaster 50s and they were good but I wanted a little louder. Any suggestions? I was looking for maybe super 40 delta flow. I want loud muffler but not obnoxious by any means and not a loud drone inside at highway speeds (2k rpm)

Thanks!

In my experience Flowmasters drone the most. I have used Magnaflows (or straight pipes) since I ditched the Flows. Also, more power with a straight through muffler than chambered.

I've had a 95 w/40 series American thunder cat back. I must say the stock header w/stock cats and FM (2.75" pipes) was a very nice combo. It didn't have a drone and sounded real good down low in rpms.
Taking the cats off (FMS shorty's w/off road H pipe.) made it have a drone about 1800 rpms and it was MUCH LOUDER. And.. it also picked up about 2 tenths & 2mph in the 1/8th.

On my 89gt the headers are stock and the after muffler pipes are stock. Has a off road H-pipe and FM 40s. I love the sound but it drones horribly at about 1900 rpms. Actually.. I wear ear plugs if going more than just a few miles. But I also really like the FM40 sound. IMO its gotta be one of the best sounding street car exhausts ever.
