I have ST and would never go with any other muffler. I heard several cars with bullets and liked them, but not near as much as the ST. It is very deep and throaty sounding. When it was dumped, it was very loud, but like mentioned above, it has a very distinct sound and tone. Cannot be matched by anything. Now that I have them run out the back, I like them even more. Sounds similar to Hooker at normal driving, but much louder. At WOT, hold on and grin away. It is unbeleivable. No rasp and no drone whatsoever. I have flanges behind the mufflers so I can run dumped if I want to. You really can't go wrong with ST's, however they all sound good.
wow. damn nice sounding car. damn loud too.. I really can't decide.. are dynomax's quieter?

well i went with the flo pro twisters and I think they sound great. I was thinking of going with the ST but I was worried about flow because of them being smaller on the inside.
^That is a great sounding car, but he's got h/c so it wont sound quite that way, and it definetly won't be that loud.

What size re your twisters? I think I'm leaning toward the dynomax's, but you moroso owners have given good feedback as well. I'm goin max hp here.. if st is 2.5 vs 3" for others..

I think I'm going to run a TSP Rumbler with the SweetThunder in the I section. I've been thinkin about that setup for a while and its awesome to finally hear it! What will be the loudest though??? In the vids posted in here, it seems like the ST is louder than the Dynomax to me.

Yea, there are a lot of sound clips at ls1sounds.com and they've been helpful in my decision making process, and since the ST is 2.5" and the others 3", I'm most likely going dynomax or moroso, most likely dynomax since ls1sounds has so many clips with them.

Yea, I hear you on the 3" better flow of the Dynomax......but I dont know, if you think about it, they are just 2.5" baffles on the ST. Its not like the whole thing is 2.5". But none the less, it does effect the flow. Judging by Silver02TA's post, I think the ST sounds louder and a lot more aggressive in those clips. So they've both got their pros and cons, just like anything else.
Ive got a pair of dynomax/thrush glasspacks, which are made just like a bullet but are about twice the length of a standard bullet. If I could have anything I want I'd definetly go with the SweetThunder. Heard them on a C4 lt1 vette, definetly one of the best sounding mufflers out there.
Hmmm, that is a good point! who knows if it will sound as good as the ST though??? ...and I mean c'mon now, we're talking maybe 1 to 4 HP here guys. Its like the GMMG, its not the most free flowing exhaust and its expensive. People still buy it because it sounds good. JMO though.
Why not use a stainless works or powerstick chambered muffler? They make them in 3" i.d. don't they? Seems like that would solve the problem.
not a bad idea... i'll check out SW's website. do they make true dual x?

Dynomax bullets are definitely louder than ST. This is from personal experience. It's not a huge volume difference, but enough. As far as sound difference though, two completely different sounds. Like I've said, bullets sound good, but ST sounds GREAT!! I am not biased, but after hearing them both......My mind was made up for me. As for flow, it can't be that much less with the ST. I picked up huge gains when the duals went on. Is a couple horse worth less aggressive sounding exhaust???? Not in my book. But this is all a personal preference. You'll be happy with bullets. You'll be thrilled with ST!
I'm switching from my 2.5" true duals with a catless H and dynomax mufflers for texas-speed 3" true dual setup with the sweet thunders. I just like how they sound, I'm not worried about a few HP.
I've been waiting two weeks on my exhaust to show up, hopefully it arrives soon I'll make some vids

sweet post em' up here if when you do.
The poll is also showing a lot of ST fans. I wonder how much gain one over the other? ST's definately sound mean.

that sucks i just ordered mine too. did u do the ups ground. the 2 day air was like freakin 250 bucks. guess i'll just waite a little longer. didn't think it would be two weeks though.

when I finally got my tracking # they didn't mail it out till 5 days after they said they did. It took 6 days to get to my house (FL) from tx.
I got a couple crappy pics (taken from vid camera) Needless to say I'm very happy with it and can't wait till it goes on the car. And as far as flow restriction, I can see how they say it goes to 2.5" inside the muffler as I took a picture of it, but I can't see it making a noticeable difference as you can see right through it.
how would these mufflers compare to !muffler. im wanted to put a muffler on my !muffler setup and these mufflers weremy top choices, but didn't know how they'd compare to the sound of whati have now. ive got stock manis, cats, ypipe with no muffler.
