You might be able to get the SLP 2OTL muffler work. Clearly one fits on the drivers side of the car and maybe you can get a second one for the passenger side. They sound good, but SLP charges $$$.

What do you have now? Can you add a set of bullets in front of your X (or H) pipe?

Add 45 cats and 15 mufflers on the exhaust

It will be hard to do. I think there was a thread about a Beamer that did an LS1 swap and wanted it to sound quiet. Let me find it.....

...wasn't able to find that one, but I found a couple of queit exhaust threads that might be of use.

Man, did you ever pick the wrong exhaust for a sleeper...I, for one, like people being intimidated by the sound alone. It is good they don't know its bark is way worse than its bite...

If you want quiet, you'll need to get cats, and you'll want to look at a stock muffler or SLP's dual/dual muffler. That's about as quiet as you'll get with these cars. The stock muffler would be a definite sleeper, but would kill power.
