I've spent many hours on ls1sounds I really like the borla mouth sound. didnt realize that the dual / dual was on the quiet side though.

Everybody has their own opinion on what's loud and what's quiet. There is no way to find a clear answer to this question without going out and listening to cars in person. Go to your local dragstrip or weekend car hangout place and ask and listen.

I have to agree with the dual-dual being the quietest. I won a quietest exhaust competition with my Hawk several years back (completely stock exhaust).

Quietness is why I got rid of my dual/dual...but if that's what you want, it would more than fit your bill. I've also really liked the sound of a B&B Triflo even though I've heard they don't flow so well...there's a guy with one around here that just sounds really, really nice. I just don't want my exhaust to be that quiet. Time for catless over the axle duals for me.

I've heard every catback on the market (that I know of). The Dual/Dual is the quietest I've found.

BTW, Dual/Dual with headers and no cats sounds awesome!
