76 2nd Gen Pontiac Firebird Exhuast Sound??

Does anybody know how Dynomax Trush Turbo mufflers sound. I have a pair of them with 2.5" in/out, and am thinking of putting them on my brother 76 Firebird. It has a 400 with 6X heads 2.11" intake valves. And Summit 1 5/8" headers with 2" dual pipes.

Would adding an X-pipe also be a good idea?

Thanks,

Right now it sounds really good with the windows down and on the gas. I currently has 2" dual pipes with glasspack, or bullet muffler. Would it be good to exit exhaust before rear axle?

Thanks alot guys!!!

An x pipe would be a good idea. It will increase hp. I don't remember how it does, but it does.

Heres a sound clip of a flowmaster Force II exhaust on a 70 Firebird with a built 455.
70 Firebird
And heres the webpage to the car

I have to love the sound of flowmasters. My dad has em on his 70 with a Ram Air III, he just had his motor built by Dan Whitmore, and it sounds like something out of hell. Well, I'll just say it sounds mean.
