i despise glasspacks. i despise loud 4.0 exhausts. i think they sound like tractors on crack.
stock is 2.25" in and out. in is center, out is offset. you can get the 100% correct glasspack thatll bolt up to the stock tailpipe, which i thought about doing. the ones that will bolt up are red hots, and they make offset ones too. break out some measurin' tape

My cat was broken up inside so I just removed it and moved the muffler up and reanchored it. No cat with a 40 series flowmaster is a bit loud.

you can either get a $25 annoying glasspack
or a $20 not as annoying muffler

Any cheap turbo muffler will sound better than a poppy, crackling glasspack.

I ad a red hot glass pack on my 94 xj and it was obnoxiously loud. I think the perfect sounding muffler is the $40 dynomax muffler. Not too loud not too quiet. My ser 40 was pretty loud but it got annoying after 3 years so i went to the dynomax and am very happy as of right now.
