Longtubes into a proper y pipe with a minimum of 3.5" y merge and a free flowing catback or cutout will have better scavenging (therefore better powerband) than a set of true duals with a horrible x-pipe (i.e. gasses running into each other at a 45 degree angle). True duals will probably "sound" better, depending on you definition. And, from personal experience, the true duals dumped will get old REAL quick.

My friend, username 'Nomadnate' has true duals dumped before the axle. He's had it for probably close to a year and is sort of tired of it. Long tubes and y pipe would be the better choice i think. If you still want to be loud you can always get an electric cutout

My old Z28 had true duals dumped at the axle. The sound was awesome, I could live with the drone, but what I never thought about and grew to hate was if I parked or drove over any amount of dirt the exhaust blew it all over the place making it damn near impossible to keep my black car spotless.
That alone was enough reason that I ran my new one's exhaust out the back.
Longtubes, ORY, and Slp Loudmouth 1. It's loud. Very, very loud. People roll up their windows and shake their heads at stoplights loud.
Turn it off at the drive through loud.
