Default TSP Duals - Muffler options

There are 3 options for mufflers I see on TSP's website. Just curious what the difference in sound will be between them.

1. Moroso Spiral Flows
2. DynoMax Bullets
3. Sweet Thunder

Try a search, there was about 10 threads recently asking the same questions, but here's the general concensus.

Spiral flows - Loud as hell, *slightly* more refined.
Sweet thunders - louder than hell, classic sound.
Bullets - loudest, think prostock if you're changing from a stock system.


You can slide a piece of 3" pipe all the way through a dynomax bullet without touching a damn thing.

I already listened to about 15 truedual clips on ls1sounds, they need to sub segment the truedual section its a mess and hard to get any kind of consensus on sound as it is.

I searched for a while and didnt find anything useful comparing and contrasting the 3 different options for the TSP Duals.

This is exactly what I was looking for, short simple and I have a good answer, thanks blur. Im ditching my Bassani exhaust and throwing it in the garbage and going with the TSP Duals.

spiral flows are more refined...better note IMO

the sweet thunders are a bit retrictive but not by much...still loud as hell.

bullets for best flow and most noise.

Wish I had seen this yesterday. I ordered a system with the Dynomax Bullets, I couldn't make up my mind and could hardly tell a difference on the clips, they all sounded good. Hoping that I'm happy with them.

Does anybody know if you can swap just the mufflers on the TSP setup without much trouble, or would there be enough difference in the three to make it worthwhile?

You will love the bullets, I would not worry about it. The bullets have such a low mean growl it's not even funny.

I had the bullets and think they sounded better for a bolt on car, but I switched to sweet thunders because when I heard a cammed car with them, it sold me instantly.

Now once my valve spring compressor tool comes in I'll make some vids of the exhaust with the cam.

Get the sweet thunders. Both of my friends got them and it makes me wish I hadn't gotten the spiral flows.

Why? Do you feel as though you are too quiet? Or do you just like the sound of the ST better?
