Muffler recommendations

My stock muffler is falling apart. I'm looking for a stainless steel replacement muffler with a 3" tip. Reason being: 3" tip won't look ricey, SS won't rust out, stock muffler is $170 (OUCH). I figure if I put it on my otherwise stock exhaust system it won't increase noise (or VERY minimally).

So anyone have any recommendations?

You can get a universal muffler. If you decide tro increase the piping, don't get rid of the resonator. You will regret it later if you end up upgrading the y-pipe.
Currently I have a magnaflow exhaust......I got mine from SWA..

Ok that doesn't help me at all. I KNOW I can get a universal muffler, that's what I said in my post in not so many words. I'm asking for a SPECIFIC muffler that is SS and has a 3" tip.

I was looking for an all in one solution. Meaning an exhaust and tip in one unit. Magnaflow only has 4" tips and larger on all their mufflers (unless they're dual units). The only way to get a 3" is to buy a universal NON TIP unit and weld a tip on. If I HAVE to go that route I will, however I'd prefer not to.
