what exhaust should i use?

i just purchased a 1991 firebird with a 305 tbi, i plan on upgrading to tuned port in the future, deleting the a.i.r pump, and putting full length headers on and also deleting the cat as smog laws are of no concern. Can anyone recommend a nice throaty sounding muffler? i don't like the sound of raspy glasspacks to much, but i love the sound of a deep throaty exhaust, and i was wondering if anyone had any suggestions?

Re: what exhaust should i use?

I have a Flowmaster American Thunder cat back (80 series muffler) 3 in. pipe with a Magnaflow high flow cat and I get compliments all the time. I like it allot. Hears a link to a page of all Flowmasters mufflers and it also shows the internal components. http://images.google.com/imgres?imgu...atAOJi8D1Awand And here's a video link to a 80 Flowmaster http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm...deoID=23636387 and here's one to a Magnaflow http://www.metacafe.com/watch/yt-wi4...ow_exhaust/and here's one to a Powerstick http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7TkhsB3TGio&NR=1 and here's one to a Spintech http://i178.photobucket.com/albums/w...ew_Exhaust.swf Heres Borla http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aLfLbFlG2dQ Enjoy. By the way I did not like the Flowmaster 80 series muffler tips sticking out from the rear of my car so i cut them back about 3in. and they tuck in nicely now.(soon to get some rolled tips)

Re: what exhaust should i use?

do you want sound or better performance.....flowmaster sound great, but flow horrible. A better way to go is with a hooker max flow or aerochamber....the flow numbers are great and the sound is good too.
