FYI, those are Hedman headers not hookers. Get something flow through like a magnaflow or dynomax

The way your exhaust is now is exactly the way I am going to do mine. Except I am going to run dynomax bullet mufflers before the turndowns. Do a youtube search for them, but sound clips never seem to any muffler justice.

I don't know what to tell you, sounding good is subjective. Get what you like. You've already slowed the car down by putting that huge exhaust system on it so you can't do much else to hurt it.

Dynomax and magnaflow have been proven HP makers over flowmasters and the like, that's why I suggest them.

i know i like the sound of flows but i went to UTI and we had them out on the dyno and they did rob the most power im thinking about the magnaflow i know they sound good on other cars i mean i guess if i dont like them i can always buy something else untill i find what i like

I was about to say 3" true dual pipes on tbi305 that would be one sloppy mess.I had true dual 2 1/4 glasspacks on my LT1 didnt like them lost low end and got bad mpg im now happy with thrush welds.And to be honest the glasspacks didnt sound as near as good as the welds.I always liked glasspacks but not right on my car.

I love the sound of my Pypes M80s- if they would only stay on- I've torn them off 2x in the last week .

They have a really nice sound at part/WOT, and aren't too loud cruising, when they aren't just hanging.
