Default would this work?

hello fellow C5 owners! im fairly new to this site.

I just recently bought a 02 corvette that has the corsa duel oval exhaust, heres a link of what it looks like

http://www.rpidesigns.com/shop/item.aspx?itemid=188

now personally I hate the tips, I dont like how big they are and how quiet the exhaust note is. now I already have tips at my job that I like but I was wondering if cutting the mufflers off and putting a pair magnaflow mufflers [part number 14210] work? heres another link...

http://www.google.com/imgres?um=1&hl...t:429,r:12,s:0

it seems like it would work, but i would like a second opinon or other options. I just want it to be a little louder and change the tips without spending a ton of money.

any ideas?

it would be cheaper to pay a shop to custom pipe you a new one and sell your current exhaust

or buy B&B bullets and be awesome like everyone else

your current exhaust system is expensive, sell it for what you want

please don't hack it up :-(
