Not many muffles sound good with the afm to be honest. I'd say do magnaflow but the exhaust note will change and not sound the greatest

14" if you want it a lil more loud, 18" is a lil bit more tamed, and then the 22" is almost stock exhaust soundin at idle. None of them are really "loud" but they're very noticeable. Stock truck, I'd go 14". I went 18" but that's because I have Longtube headers and no cats so it's just as loud as a 14" on a stock truck.
