The only noise that I'm worried about is the one inside the car. Since they will be right under rear seats I think there will be some resonance inside the car. Getting muffles kind of defeats point of TDs, doesn't it?
Sounds like you already made your mind up but to push you a little further, the first thing I did to my LT1 and will do to my LS1 are TD's and I'm VERY pleased. I talked my buddy into TD's instead of a ORY pipe for his SS and he couldn't be happier!

Would $300 be worth extra few ponnies? How much better would QTP setup be against JH?
Got a link for TSP duals? I can't seem to find them for sale anywhere?

With a mild setup, it's "a few ponies".
When you get up there, Heads/Cam, Fast 90mm intake, "a few ponies" becomes, 20, 25, 30 ponies.
Cheap is good for now, sure, but you may end up swapping it out later.
My old car, with a TSP 231/237 cam and TEA Stage 1.5s on STOCK CUBES is making 472rwhp right now (that's not very common at all), thru QTP HVMC LT's, QTP ORY and a SLP 2OTL. That's the last time I'll say that in this thread. Would it make those numbers through TD's? Probably so. Would it make those numbers with Jet Hot or Pacesetter headers. Probably NOT.
One final note, TD's are not the end all and be all that everyone thinks they are. They offer decent gains, but again, I state, those gains are often compared to crappy ORY pipes which basically jam the left and right exhaust into the I pipe and call it a day.

Hey, I'm just speaking from experience. TD's are a great novelty. They sound badass, they're different than your average joe's catback. But when you get sick of how loud they are and your brain yearns to stop resonating in your skull, you'll remember me. 
saw this and though y.ou may be interested...

Thanks for that link man. I still have to pay off some money since I got the car, so all these plans are for next spring probably.
