My father-in-law has a single 3" Dynomax Racing Muffler, straight through. He has SLP LTs, big cam, and a cutout. When the cutout is shut, sounds like a bone stock car. It actually looks like a v-6 from the rear, b/c of the single non-chrome exhaust tip. You'd never know that it was a 10 second car. Kinda sneaky

Well, I'm going to do true duals dumped before the axle. It's a '98 LS1, LT, TR224, ORY no cats. I would like to use a bullet type muffler on each side due to space issues. So what do you think would be the quietest bullet style muffler? Thanks
slp dual/dual 
seen a few stock z28 cat backs blow the packing out and sound terrible. ive got the d/d and cutout setup and love it great sound and not to loud unless you want it to be that day 
i had sweet thunders before and it was way to loud for everyday use

I heard the dual/dual is the quietest because they came on SLP's versions of the fbody cars from the factory, therefore they had to be somewhat quiet compared to typical aftermarket exhausts.

No, I don't have any sound clips, but I may see if I can get one. I am not talking about the dynomax bullet. Those things are really loud
. This is just the regular shaped muffler, just straight through. I forgot to say that he also does not have any cats on the car, just a given here in Oklahoma. I also have these dynomax's (3" dual) on my 69 chevelle. Just has a low deep rumble while cruising around. They will start screaming in the upper rpm range though. Nothing like the loud flowmasters I have on my Z.

a lot of you haven't heard a bone stock f-body in quite sometime, they are VERY, VERY quiet (especially for what they are). the setup you just described is about 30x louder than the stock setup.

Excuse the **** out of me 
Your right. I haven't heard a bone stock f-bod in a while. But I will try to get you a sound clip so you can hear it. I have some videos, but they are with the cutout open. Sorry for trying to make a comparison
