Will this muffler work well on my truck?

I saw this muffler on eBay. It appears to be new and I can probably pick it up instead of having the seller ship it. It is the pipe size I am looking for. The only things I can think of is if I should get a stainless steel instead of aluminized or if the locations of the ports will work. Here is the link:

Does your truck still have the stock exhaust? If you have stock exhaust the tubing size is 1 7/8" so at the least you will need adapters to mate it to your exhaust pipes.

My exhaust is stock, but I am going to upgrade the pipe size. Should I buy this aluminized muffler or buy a stainless steel one?

The muffler is a 4.25" x 9.75" oval. Will it fit or will I need to get a smaller one or a round one?

FWIW, I put a Dynomax turbo Muffler on my v6 and it sounded like crap. I went with a Magnaflow.

I am not looking for something too loud. I am mainly looking for a free flowing, quieter muffler. I have done some research and the Dynomax seems like it will fit what I am looking for.

IVe been through all different muffler setups and Im happy with my Borla now. I orignaly had the greddy SP, then the dynomax, then a flowmaster 40 delta, then the magnaflow, and evetaually the current Borla. I recomend the stainless steel borlas they are a little pricey, but well worth the price. The reason I like it is that 1) life time garentee 2) sounds fairly deep 3) not super agressive 4) low profile design
