Looking for a cheap center Muffler
Taking out the 2 side cans to see if I like the sound still while losing some weight off the tail.
I am trying to decide wether to keep my new shine Ti one in the box or use it and cap off one hole each side, or get a cheap steel one.
For this tryout the rustier the better.
I think alll '07 and newer, including CUP with just one hole each side (preferred) will work.

if you can tig weld it can be done for under two hundred you can order pipes from manderal-bends.com small pipe is 2" larger one is 2.5" get a transition cone from 2.5 - 3.5. im going to redo mines with larger tips soon. if you can't tig. if you get all the measurements you can have them weld if for you at i think 80 hr.

My 2 cents:
I would not remove the side mufflers and run what is essentially straight pipe center section (as from other tuners). Will sound hellacious but you will lose power. I've experimented with this.
Stay with the stock center section and dyno to see what gives.
My .1 RS was dyno'ed > 20 times over several months as M&M designed headers and finally created the optimum center section resonator with 200 cell cats. My RS made 360 rwhp stock and ended with 394 rwhp.
Just this week before the start of a "little" project it was re-dyno'ed after nearly 2 years and put down 396 rwhp. No loss or deterioration after all this time.
I understand you guys do not think much of if at all about M&M. That's cool.
Again just my 2 cents (before taxes).

I have a M&M (FVD) on my car...it's really great stuff.
