There may be other mufflers available from engine mfg. that will just bolt on. Look for the model number and type of the engine itself and check with small engine dealer or engine mfg. web site (not coleman web site). I have seen many home-made modifications to quiet engine resulting in only moderate success. The quietest used scooter muffler but only exaggerated the sound of the intake and mechanical sound of internal parts. Take a look at generators built for camping for ideas. You will notice that not only do they have larger mufflers but also use insulated covers to deaden sound. Good luck with your project

To loud, do they have a better muffler kit

Most likely a different muffler is available for easy bolt-on solution. Best way to check is to find model and type of engine and check with engine distributor in your area or the web. Engine model is usually found on the starter/fan cover or the block. The problem is the limited space within the frame of the generator. Other solution is to contact a small engine service center for modification. There are several sources for quiet mufflers, however takes creative installation. Take a look at other generators with very quiet mufflers for ideas (different types of machine may use the same engine so take notice how other types lawn equipment /tools deal with noise ). Some generators are made for camping or use in quiet zones and use other methods for quieting the unit. Still other generators are noisy even with large mufflers. Good luck with your project.

I have a Coleman Powermate 5500 Generator. It is

This engine was not built with quiet in mind, it was built to be cheap. upgrading the exhaust is your best bet and likely the cheapest. Talk to a small engine shop about the possibility of using a muffler from an ATV.

Super Trap makes a fantastic muffler, if it will fit your application (most do). A link has been provided at the end. When you are looking at the various options, you will notice that a rating in db units. Reducing noise by 3db is half the original noise level.

if you can, go with the SuperTrapp. If still noisy (probably won't be), then add on the resonator as well. Downside to using aftermarket is that you will have an exhaust stack / system that sticks out the side of the generator. Upside is that you will be able to think quietly about how much the exhaust sticks out.

And no, I don't have any connection with Jack's, they are just the first hit that came up. Now that you know that something is available, you can do more research on it.
