Ground clearance issue

Ok i decided i am going to dump my exhaust before the rear axle but im still going to use a muffler. I Know this is going to kill my ground clearance so i was wondering which muffler i should use that wont hurt me too bad. I was originally thinking a flowmaster 40 series just because i like the sound but i dont know if i should give up sound if the flowmaster is going to whip out my ground clearance.

I happen to have a CHERRY BOMB TURBO II muffler... it isnt ver tall.. you could fit it in there somewhere.. brand new in the box..
ive got one on my car and if i had a way to bend my own pipe it would be where i wanted it ( that space right before the axle where the floorpans slant up)
but unfortunately i dont - so mine hangs down in the middle of the car (length wise) and under the floor pan...

but if you can get a pipe bent you'd have no clearence issues..
