You'd just cut it all off and replace it.

That factory dual muffler setup was pretty sad.

A complete cat-back is in order.

Yup, that is completely factory...
Only way to run that muffler is if you get a single cat-back tube, the one you have now splits into two over the axle and wont work. might as well just get a whole cat-back but if your on a budget then pull a single cat-back tube off another thirdgen that has that then you can use the muffler you posted.

I had a Flow 80 put on, I got it from the junkyard and had it cut before the axel, this set up is really sad...

Re: How to put a muffler on with this setup

Take it off without cutting it up just for easy removal, sell it to somebody trying to restore an early 3rd gen & get you a good catback. My complete mandrel bent 3" catback was like $220, IIRC.
