Default muffler help

Hey guys my build is almost complete, i got the pacesetter LTs and a matching y pipe, my delima is i wont have enough money at the end to finish my full exhaust for about a month, so what im going to do is run a dynomax bullet muffler, which is the one i want on the full exhaust anyway. except im going to put a turn down at the end of it. My question is which one of their bullets is the quietest? i know its kind of an oxymoron saying which bullet muffler is quiet but which of their choices is the queiestest for a 3 in and 3 out? i do plan to run off of this with a backwards y set upad go to the stock locations in about a month. And im in fl in a small town so cats and emissions r no issue.

get a Pypes M80 canister style muffler. i had one on my heads/cam LT1 and it sounded great and ill be keeping it with my 383. also it is a canister style muffler so you can run on muffled street nights if your local track has them because it is not a bullet

For the bullets the longer they are the quieter.

Any "turbo" mufflers are usually more quiet.
