Word, I just got sweet thunders put on today for my TSP dual setup. Sounds waaaaaay better than the bullets. Meaner and tougher I'd say. I would recommend these mufflers to any TSP duals owner.

Im thinking about going with the sweet thunders, are they too loud for a daily driver? I want something that wont be asking for a cop to pull me over.

I think if I ever get pulled over for my exhaust, I'm gonna ask why they don't pull over all the rice rockets that sound way worse (and many times louder) than mine.

I highly doubt any cop would pull you over unless you were really getting on it...

I'd like to hear those in person sometime. I'd like to get them before Spring and video sounds never do justice.

Ive got the TSP system, love it, but Im gonna switch out for some Sweet Thunders or Magnaflow 4x9s here soon. Can't decide which, but the drone and interior noise from the Dynomax's are just a tic much for a daily driver. Just biding my time till I can get me one of TSPs cams in this biach, I have clips of the MS3 and the new 233/239 saved on my desktop, drive my co-workers nuts playing them 4-5-12 times a day. Can't wait.

They are loud. But it's up to your tolerance. I almost never have passengers and enjoy listening to my exhaust over listening to the radio. I'm a gearhead to the fullest, so it's fine IMO for a daily driver.

As far as the cops, I've had cops look at my true duals dumped (illegal to have dumps) back when I had the bullets on (illegal mufflers, btw) and he still didn't give me a ticket. It's up to the cop, most won't give you a ticket though.

Sound clips are almost pointless, no disrespect to ls1sounds, but they just don't do the cars any justice. Sounds way different in person, almost always better in person.

Dude, just shoot me a pm if you wanna meet up to hear them. I think UF is like 1 hr away from Jax, right?

How well did the sweet thunders fit down there? I thought they were a lot bigger than the dynomax bullets that came on there.

Yeah, they were smaller in diameter than the bullets. I took some pics, once I get them developed I'll post up a thread to show my clearance.
