Default TSP True Duals

I am considering The TSP true duals ... and my question is this , what muffler(s) ( that TSP offers) would sound the best with my pacesetters and ORY ? Would the sweet thunders or the Dynomax Bullets be the way to go? I know they are going to be loud as hell but i also want it to be somewhat tame and have a good-sounding exhaust note. Not random noises.

And i appologize in advance to any of those who take offense in the Search button and LS1sounds.com ordeal

Edit: for spelling errors

The TD's will replace your ORY.

The bullets are the way to go but some people dont like their sound. However the bullets freaking flow! Theres also the Sweet thunders, they are not as loud but still close to the bullets. The problem is with the thunders is that they are pretty damn restrictive due to the 2.5" instead of 3"

Theres also the Spirals/Twisters they have a really good sound. Some people complain about a fluttering sound they get with them though. They flow pretty damn good as well.

Since it seems you have a stock cam right now go with the bullets.

I dont really know that much about this stuff but I dont think you will need a ORY with a True Duals setup....so i think all that will matter is the headers which from what i have searched and read about go well with teh TSP TD setup. As far as the muffler choice i am in the same boat as you and cant choose so I cant help you there

i didnt mean to post " WITH my ORY" , i meant in place of my ORY and stock catback ...my mistake . I know the X-pipe will replace the Y . But my main question was to which muffler to go with. Anyone have any suggestions to mufflers that i didnt list? Thanks guys ( and gals if it applies) for all the help .

LOL yeah the Spirals are good mufflers thats for sure. I believe Lane did a back to back dyno test comparing the spiral type mufflers to the bullets. If I remember correctly there was only a couple hp difference.

So u would favor the bullets over the spirals? Im not really worried about a gain or loss of a couple hp. What i really am aiming for is the best flow/ sound ratio . Thanks again man .

Best flow is the bullets hands down.

Best sound...thats subjective. The bullets are going to be loud and nasty while the spirals are more refined - still pretty loud as well.

So best sound/flow is going to be the bullets. That sounds to be what you are looking for.
