Two mufflers? Good lord. With just one straight-through muffler and a test pipe, I really liked my exhaust and was worried that adding the cat would muffle it too much. Thankfully it didn't do anything to the sound! My wife said "It shakes the house when you leave in the morning."
Perfect.
(before you ask, I'm mid-30's and the 951 is one of the quieter cars I've had!)

David, so adding the muffler mellowed out the sound, but still sounds good under power? Sounds like the way to go, anybody know what size a Bursch test pipe is? I can't seem to find dimensions anywhere.

Thanks David, sounds like just what I was looking for. Do you feel that it had any effect on HP or spool time? Of course, if you have a 2.8 you have a bit more to spare than I do.
