Help me decide on an exhaust solution

Right now, I have a 60-1 on my FC. I'm installing an FD intake, custom Spearco IC and changing over to a divided manifold setup this winter. I'm running a Racing Beat turbo back exhaust system, including the pre-silencer, from the custom downpipe on back.

I am going to be taking this off and selling it, so I need some suggestions on what to buy for my new exhaust system. I'd like to have a presilencer in it to make the exhaust a bit less "chainsaw on crack" sounding. I'm also wanting to go single exit on the passenger side of the car. What is the best muffler for this? Who makes a presilencer that flows the the best? Should I even use a presilencer?

I'm planning on having the rest of the exhaust fabricated, so I'm not looking for "Go buy an N1"... just looking for parts comparisons.

Thanks in advance!!!

X-tec makes the best quality canisters. They are fully rebuildable and you can adjust fiber pack for sound reasons. I had one on my car

That sounds pretty phat. Do you know the model number or dimensions of the one that you bought? This is the info that I'm looking at:
http://www.geocities.com/dlstperformanc/xtec.html

Is there a better place to get info or purchase them from? Do you need to run a presilencer with one of these since they are tunable?
