At least put some mufflers because if not it's gonna sound like a truck, IMO Flowmaster 1 chamber sound's really good! And Borla XR1's.

Just because it's loud, doesn't mean it sounds good, ...
Dumps suck.
Go clear to the rear bumper at least, so you can hear your think when you're inside.

I'm running Jet Hot Hooker LT's with the Jet Hot ORY & GMMG CB - the sound is perfect for that 'muscle car' sound. Nice deep low sound @ idle - really wakes up when you get on it - but not a bad loud sound - sounds like many of the big block 60's cars I had back in the day. I don't use my T/A for DD - mostly show car, so the noise level does not bother me. Actually, the noise is not at all obtrusive on the hiway in cruise mode while in OD...

Won 'Best Sounding Exhaust' trophy at a show with this setup.

Previously I had the Borla setup, which wasn't too bad with factory manifolds and cats, but with the headers and !cats - the sound was for crap and very raspy
