Default Spintechs on an LQ? Also dual side exits?

So I'm planning on doing an LQ4 swap for my Nova sometime in the future and I'm trying to find exhaust options that are low profile and sound good. I have subframe connectors that are abot 2x2" and go down both sides of the car right along where I'd like to have the exits in front of the rear wheels.
I have heard of people using Spintechs but not a whole of people using their Pro Street and Super Pro Street series. Anyone here have a Super Pro Street? I want an aggressive but not stupid loud sound, the clips I've heard off YouTube and other random reviews say they sound good but I'm interested in people that have a Gen III engine with headers, no cats, 3" piping, and Spintechs (Most videos are stock 5.3s and such and it's not the best indication for me).

ALSO: anyone have any experience with dual side exits with dual tips? I want single inlet/dual exit mufflers dumped out both sides (Don't hate me, but like the Torino from Fast and Furious haha, only car I've seen with them)
Spintech has a 3" in dual 2.5" out Super Pro Street, how might that affect the sound if I use them on a short true dual setup?

These are the ones I'm looking at, I'd have them almost directly after the headers and then both outlets out both sides

As a visual I'd like it something like this:

I ran Spintechs on my '70 Camaro and loved it. Ran the 3" in 2.5" out splitcase with inlet/outlet on the same side and ran a short j-pipe out the side. LOVED the sound. Very quiet and mello unless it was WOT.

On my Cutlass I used Jones Maxflow 3" in/out single inlet/outlet mufflers and a 45 degree bend out the sides. Tip is a Pypes double. For-sure it flows better, has a deep idle and is LOUD at WOT.

Did you have any sort of crossover or did you have true duals? I've pretty much only been able to find videos of cars with x-pipes and I'm not going to be running one myself so it'll be louder

Anyone ever ran something like two SLP Loudmouth 1's in a row? Not an LM1 and then an LM2 or something, but just two LM1s?

I always run an x-pipe in all of my cars.

those mufflers are very load but sound bad ***! I have Spintech on my car and it is truly a amazing sound. some cops really hate them so try and keep the old foot out of the gas in town.
