Dynomax bullets would have to be my bet. Cheap and free flowing.

Borla XR-1s if it is an all out drag race setup. If it sees the street a lot, I like the Flo-Pro Twisters.

I ran the 6" version straight off the headers for classes that required a muffler. I was surprised how much they toned it down for such a small size, light weight with little or no restriction. Burns has been making race mufflers for years.

For the $$$ get the Summit or jegs "bullet style" mufflers. Same damn thing as any other race muffler but at a fraction of the cost.

Do you drive it on the street? I want to run mufflers right off the headers on my car, but I daily drive it and don't want it to be too loud.

Yeah my frioend said his same set up was too loud with the T rex and he ended up putting true duals dumped at the rear end back on. I'm not gonna puss out like him though. i have a few tricks up my sleeve if i think its too loud after i put the cam in. right now with the stock cam its too quiet. it only get loud when i go WOT.
