I want the loudest muffler I can get, but I want it to have a similair hollow sound lke the 2 chambers. Also, would going to 3inch exhaust be any benefit over 2 1/2, or would it just hurt low-end torque?

The 1-chamber will be very, very loud. You'll love it for about a day, then slowly begin too hate it. It's really a race muffler, not a street muffler. Normally, a 3-inch exhaust would be a loss on your 5.0 but on a 514, no problem.
