Can't decide on what I want for an exhaust

Hello everyone, I am looking for some input on what I should do for an exhaust system on my pickup. I have a 2001 supercrew 4X4 with the 5.4V8. I want to do duals with 45s out back and I am going to delete the back to cats and get the sensor foolers. I want and exhaust that is going to sound very good with no real popping sound. (the popping drives me insane!!) I want it to be loud but not with glasspacks. What do you guys recommend for a good setup??

I like my setup a lot, but I don't have cats. With your rears deleted, it would sound similar.

I have no spending limit! But I really havent found just a cat back exhaust that I would be happy with. So thats why I am going to do my own system.

DarrenWS6 I was watching your video on youtube and I really like the sound of the bullets, but they still had some popping, but they have a real thunderous tone that I love. Would the magnapacks be just as loud? and what size would you recommend?
