for a 2.3L engine a guess for setting it up would be put some reducers that are smooth and not abrupt transitions to reduce the pipe down to 1" or 1 1/4" then back to 2". Put that about halfway between the cat and muffler. Then you can do whatever you want to the muffler and it will probably stay in tune and run just fine. The restriction will help keep it from killing your bottom end torque. If you get lucky it can improve your bottom end a tiny bit.
