opinion needed please

I'm thinking about switching out my SLP Loudmouth catback, and putting on something less........loud.

I had Edelbrock catback on the car initially and it sounded great.

I'm probably gonna get a 3" cutout with a QTP electric cutout thingy.........but which cat back should i get? Dynomax? Edelbrock? Flowmaster? Hooker?

or should I just put a muffler on the loudmouth?

right now it's EXTREMELY loud. Edelbrock TES, no cat, and loudmouth.......on a 88 IROC 305 TPI

I just ordered the hooker system...The sound clips I have heard sound real good. Loud, but very bassey sounds. Nothing overly loud.

I have the Dynomax 3in catback.....sounds very nice, especially with no cats. It has a bassy rumble...and it supposed to be one of the best flowing mufflers(super turbo).

I heard your car at a show once and with the previous system it was way too low. I'd go with Flowmaster, especially with how modded your car is because they usually sound best on a car with power.
