I think that I would agree with Bruce.  with as good as the systems are
getting & the Mufflers now days I bet that any reasonable exhaust will
perform similarly compared to the rest of them.  I would bet that there is
<10 HP difference in exhausts given the same motor & header.

There are 11 sec GNs using a single 3".
Just a matter of what you wanna spend,  I think some folks get overly
carried away.  Muffler type has as much to so with it as anything.
