Default true duals DREAM setup

If you could fit ANY muffler under your car, what would you guys go with for true duals? And just why would you choose that muffler? Max effort setup? Flow? Sound? Quality?

Thanks for your imput guys. Ive got a plan going and need a bit more insight.

Although they're not for everyone, I have 1-chamber flowmasters on my td setup, and wouldn't trade 'em for any other muffler out there! I get tons of compliments on the sound.

I believe the Magnaflow 4x9's will be the most popular. If they'll fit, that's what I would like to run. I've never liked the "infamous" flowmaster sound. To much like a kid beating on a metal pan for me.

I also vote for Flowmaster 1-Chambers. I have Hooker LT's, No cats, 2'5", X-Pipe w/ 2 Flowmaster 1-Chambered mufflers dumped. The sound is amazing! It is very very deep and loud (Just the way I like it) I dont know who would want to put a silly catback on an LS1 after hearing my duals.

I haven't seen many true dual setups in person but from what I can tell of the sound clips I've heard... I like the Sweet Thunders Those are the mufflers I plan on using when I go to TD's unless my current project takes a different direction

I think I would need something smaller like the Sweet Thunders to give me as much ground clearance as possible with my lowered car.

Car will be stock height, or a bit lower. Depends will adjustable drag shocks and all. Of course this is ASSUMING you would be able to fit ANY muffler under the car.
