Default Exhaust

I just put a Thunder Racing T-Rex cam in my 2001 Z28 and with my borla catback it is extremely loud. I just wanted to know which catback and which true duals setup you guys thought would be the quietest with this cam.I was thinking maybe a true dual setup with two 4"x9" oval magnaflow mufflers, and when I want it loud just open the cutout.What do you think?

Thanks

well make sure you dont get bullet mufflers because they scream...any duals are going to be on the loud side but it is more of a deep loud so its nice...maybe like a 2.5 setup instead of a 3 inch might help quit it down im not sure though

You have longtube headers and no cats, I assume? Magnaflow and Hooker are a couple good flowing and nice sounding cat-backs that aren't too loud. True duals are pretty loud, you could run bullets AND the magnaflows if you want.

Thanks for the input guys. If I use bullets and magnaflow mufflers where do you put the bullets?
