Default pic of sweet thunder mufflers

Just wondering what sweet thunder mufflers look like. I have true duals and just looking for some options. Thanks

Difference in sound is like night and day with my true duals IMO. The bullets sound very deep but tend to drone a bit and take away from the "sound" of the exhaust. The sweet thunders are still very deep, but you can here the lump-lump-lump in the exhaust, sounds very old school musclecar.

You can get them in 2½'' or 3'' the thing is, they only have up to a 2½'' core. And as for length, you can either get them in 18'' & 24'' but you can also customize the length as well for your specifications.

i just got them on my car...i love it. i have lt's, 2.5 inch duals with 18" sweet-thunders. its really not that loud, i have no drone, and no vibrations. it sounds deep and smooth, like an oldschool muscle car, and up top it screams.

Looks like the old 69 camaro mufflers to me. I would use these over a bullet muffler in my opinion.

i wish you could get the tsp system with these mufflers. if i could weld, i'd just buy an x pipe and weld my own system together but alas, i cannot. i'll just end up swapping them out at a later date once i buy the system.
