Default too much noise

I have the STS twin setup and want to bring down the volume a bit....what muffler and where could I install it? I will be pushing close to 14 lbs boost max so I need nothing flying out of the muffler into my turbos.

Be careful. You may not want the back pressure with the turbos already in the back.

I like loud but not when it drones into the cabin so bad it gives you a headache. This means nothing but two turbos to deaden any exhaust noise.....man I dont like that idea.
