The cannon will be louder. Oval's generally have a nicer sound but it all depends on the actual muffler - e.g. a low quality oval vs a quality cannon, etc.
All up to you though... Do the old exhaust trick - While installing, just hold the muffler up to the rest of your exhaust and squeeze a towel over it to seal it and get someone to rev it. Choose which one you like then install.
Good luck!

Man that cannon is huge!
Anyway hope one of them sound good! Post up pics when installed.
That muffler aint bad at all. Pretty good buy or free item from your mate. Nice presentable chrome tip on it too.

don't worry bout the original piping then. probably work out cheaper to get a custom cat-back put on with ur own muffler then buy a whole new muffler.
