Default whats good muffler for true duals

I am wanting to put some mufflers on my car ls1 trans am. What would be a good muffler for a deep sound and not to loud but deep. Does anyone know of someone using a mac muffler for true duals.Flowpath. A buddy has some on his fairmont and they sound awesome. True duals with this muffler would sound good i think. Any thoughts for a muffler for deep sound..

I am planning on using MAC's 3" catback on my 93 mustang that I LS1 Swapped. Im couldnt find anyone running MAC on an LS1 but it sounds awesome on every fox mustang ive heard. Its the only company that makes a 3" system for a fox that isnt 800 dollars.

I agree with Guitar about Borla. Another good muff is Magnaflo, but I am bias towards a Borla muff. I did a custom mufflex copy cat with a Borla XR1 with an I pipe placed DMH cutout and have been happy with it for >3 years now.

I'm running dual SLP Loudmouth II mufflers. Nobody else has them on here that I know of??? But it sounds great. Here's a video with them dumped. I now have pipes run out the back. Excellent sound. This is from my phone's camera and does not sound anywhere near as good as it does in person. They are actually pretty quiet when cruising around. LM2 mufflers have a lot of sound dampening in them, but sound amazing WOT
