I have duals with Dynomax Race Bullet mufflers, and I am thinking of getting some different mufflers welded in their place... Anybody have any good ideas of brands I should check out? The car sounds way too out of hand.

Chris, when I had the same duals as you I had Flo-Pro Twisters. They flow just as well as bullets but are not as loud. I loved the way it sounded.

With how loud this bucket is now, I can't envision how loud open headers would be. I can't be driving it around worried about if I will come to a light next to a cop and rattle his fillings out.

So, prices on 2 Flo-Pro twisters? Any other bullet type mufflers that I should consider? XR-1's are too expensive.

No, I am still racing. I have a new setup where I don't need to be as light. I have full exhaust now and am throwing a cage in too.

If you guys don't think it's that loud, ask my neighbors.
