Most quiet single exhaust?

Hey all. So I'm ready to do my exhaust as follows:

3" Racing Beat down pipe
3" Racing Beat Silencer
3" custom single tip catback

My question pertains to that catback. I've pretty much decided I'm going to fabricate my own( a lot of catbacks out there bottleneck at 2.5" to bolt to the stock cat, c'est mal! ), and I'm pretty worried about how much noise this setup will make. I realize that it's going to be loud anyway, but what canister will come close to mimicing the racing beat catback in decibel range? Thanks guys!

If sound is a concern then single is out of the question.

It's not that serious. I want my flow, but I'd like to conserve my hearing as well. I'm just looking for the quietest single setup.

That's what I'm asking for in my original post. Have any recommendations on such a muffler?

Well since your going Single and larger diameter it will be VERY hard to match the ability of a dual 2 and something inch exhuast.

After listening to the guys at Racing beat when I was at Sevenstock it sounds like Length and width are your main thing to look at. To get near the level of the RB you will have to get a pretty long and wide one with some good heat resistant materials in it.
