The muffler should have large enough passages to allow good flow through it and yet have enough sound-deadening material to muffle the exhaust note. The longer the better. Here is the type of muffler I have always depended on to do the job. Run exhaust pipes out to the back of the vehicle. Terminating them under will result in a drone that will make you crazy.
