Curious to why your taking the exhaust manifold off, or do you mean the exhaust from the from the exhaust manifold. As I don't think you have any need to remove the exhaust manifold it's self?

Let's have some pics too

muffler for sure, unless you like being looked at everywhere you go.

I fitted a 3" system to my factory turbo 80 and it was way too noisey with no muffler, sounded like a school bus with a broken manifold.

go the longest straight through muffler you can fit in. It will still sound beefy, but will take some of the noise out without affecting flow
