upgrade exhaust? edelbrock

My trans am has alot of work done to it from the previous owner. He seemed to get the best parts for everything. He has no cats with 3 1/2 inch piping to rear with a horizontal muffler under the hatch with 2 pipes exiting. Is this a good exhaust for power? Its not really that loud, but it sounds okay. Its also edelbrock muffler. Should i upgrade to somthing else?

Also is it common to have the horizontal mufflers? I just go into f bodys and most other muscle cars ive had just had dumps at the rear wheels. Is this possible with an f body? Sorry if this makes no sense. thanks

Wouldn't know why not (I'm running a three-inch system with a cat behind my set-up).

Sounds like the muffler is in the OE position. You can fab most anything you want with some time and money.
