getting exhaust done in 2 hrs should i run over axle or dump?

I'm going to be getting my new maggie 14" 4x9 welded up here in a couple of hours I just didnt know what the sound difference would be on a dump vs. me hooking up to the stock over axle and nice shiney tip lol

Also the muffler is a 2.5/2.5 so Can I run a 3" I pipe or will that not do anything and I should just get a new 2.5" i pipe

You will have a lot of drone if you dump it. I would run it out the rear.

Complete the exhaust going over axle. Stay with 2.5" if the muffler is 2.5. That way in the future you can have another 2.5" exhaust welded in and run 2.5" true duals which will be perfect.
