Default dynomax bullet or borla XR-1

I am planning on putting true duals after my pacesetter longtubes and am trying to compare the mufflers. Now keeping in mind my car is lowered 1.25 inches on BMR springs, what do you guys think would give me more ground clearance and better sounds. Feel free to chime if if you think there are better choices as well. {looking for aggressive the car isnt daily driven }

My car is lowered 1.25" inches and I don't have issues scraping my 2.5" X-Pipe. I run the Dynomax Bullets and it definetly sounds aggressive, sounds pretty amazing WOT. I always get alot of compliments. Although I have not heard an LT1 with TD's and XR-1's in person, they are certainly good sounding mufflers. I though about running them myself but the $40 Dynomax Bullet > $125+ XR1 when it came down to my wallet.

Magnaflow has some nice SS bullet mufflers. There around $60-75 depending on length, and in/out size.

Dynomax bullets, hpipe, 2.5"
I always recommend the Dynomax bullets. When I went to a single 4" I stuck with a Dynomax bullet also, I never regret how my car sounds now or how it sounded in the past with the bullets.

I don't care for the dynomax sound at all.

The Moroso spiral flow, pro flow twistiest or power sticks are the best sounding duals I've heard

I'm running the bullets on my TA and have had great luck with them.
