Default Hooker Aero Chamber for duals?

I have 4x9 Magnaflow mufflers on my 3" duals now and have for a year or so. The tone seems to have changed quite abit (higher now). I guess over time they have burned the sound packing out. I am wanting that low deap tone I had before back and still keep the awesome flow of the Magnaflow 4x9 straight through design.

I have been looking at The Hooker Aero Camber mufflers single in/out design and was wondering if anyone has any experience with them on duals? I have done searches and only came up with the Hooker catback, but no info on them being used on duals.

Theyre 4.75" thick so you would lose .75" of ground clearance. Just letting you know just incase.

Have a listen, I've got a couple clips in this thread:https://ls1tech.com/forums/generation-iii-external-engine/489543-who-has-best-sounding-ls1.html

/hijack

BAIN: Although I've never heard a dual setup on an LS1 with hooker aerochambers, I have heard them on an h-pipe setup on a healthy sbc. Compared to my sbc in my truck with dual 40 series flowmasters, the aerochambers are a lot quieter and very deep. None of the "tinny" sound the 40's have. I think they would sound good on an ls1.
I can't believe your 4x9's burned out in less than a year.....that sucks man. Do you have room for the hookers in place of the 4x9's?

Now that I think about it the mufflers are almost 2 years old. I really don't know if they are burned out or not, but they are louder and get a little rasp now that wasn't there before.
