Default Primary muffler question

I have a stupid question for you. I apologize in advance!
I am in the process of removing a primary muffler by pass and I am curious as to the orientation of the primary muffler when it goes back in? I am then installing a G-pipe to see what sound difference is?
if you would like to text me a pic or me text you a pic that would be great! 612-806-4382
Thanks
Kris

Thanks for the pic(and the tip) Vandit!
I am curious on the back side though? Both pipes coming out look the same? There are brackets welded on the engine side of the muffler that the straps attach to that I am curious about?

Do I need to remove the rear bumper cover as well?

You shouldn't need to remove the bumper.

I believe there are a couple of tabs on the canister that lock into the bracket, then the big straps hold it in place.

I haven't heard many people go back to stock - do you have the secondary muffler and cat, too? Lose much HP?

Flea18.
I did remove the secondary and replaced it with a G-pipe. Cat is still original. Not sure there is any change in HP?
