Default true duals with manifolds

ok my car is a 1998 z28 automatic. it has the slp loud mouth as of now. i want to run a straight pipe on ea side to a 18" bullet or a xr-1 borla muffler for now. then il get the headers and the pipe should still work just have to be cut back. its all stuff i can do here at work. just wanting to know how it will sound until i get the headers compared to the loud mouth? also how would the dyno max rac muffler sound? looks just like the xr-1? please any info on loudness deepness, rasp? loss in power? gain in power? anything please thanks!

sounds like it would be pretty raspy to me. I had a single race type muffler like a bullet on the I-pipe and dumped just past the axle and it was not bad with cats but without it would be pretty raspy. Then I put a set of Mac mids on there and it really sounded like ***. I hated it. Now, long tubes to a Hooker aerochamber exhaust and it's perfect.

don't do it, it'll sound horrible. I'd say if your going to go through all that trouble, spend the extra cash to do it right. it'll sound/perform better.
