Duane - there is "gurgle" when you lift-off the gas, but no popping. Come to think of it, I did have popping with the single-out DANSK Sport. I kind of like the gurgle.
The tips are 2.5" U.S. made 304 stainless tubing purchased online from Race Mufflers - Stainless Mufflers - Oval Race Exhaust. Ordered two-feet for $13/ft. - very nice quality.
What welder and wire are you using?

Wish I could buy one of these from you!
I don't believe all of the old banana mufflers, like a Dansk, are double skinned.

There used to be a couple of guys, many years ago, that would do the sport mod to stock mufflers. Might be easier to find a good used one.
