Does the 2OTL have a muscle car look?

Whenever I get my Camaro I wanted to get SLP's 2OTL, but, does that look too euro? Or would that look pretty 'muscle car'?

What would give me about the same sound for that price or cheaper? I was also thinkin about using Dynomax bullets. Have one in the I pipe, and then one for each tail pipe...basically "Dynamouth" with two extra mufflers. Reason being is I want something that flows a lot but is quiet cause I can't have a loud *** car. But I will have an E-Cutout for those special occasions Thanks for any opinions...

I loved the 2 OTL sound on my LT1, but did not like the looks. My '99 has the stock muffler, and given the choice, I'd take the 2 OTL over stock any day, just for the sound....it's not so obnoxious that your neighbors will hate you!

When I was looking at my car to buy it (has a 2OTL) I was thinking, "aww... thats disgusting... im gonna change that right away." As soon as he started it up I changed my mind Awesome sound...

It sounds even awesomer with an open e-cutout : http://home.comcast.net/~scoobysnax83/2otlcutout.wmv

I might add that it is not possible for computer speakers to replicate the sound... my mirrors blur

i personally dont like it at all. It may sound good but there are other options out there that look better and sound better too. Its just not stylish enough for me but thats my opinion.

Funny.... a friend of mine bought a 97 30th SS convertible new.... and eventually pushed it to 1,125flywheelHP, and ran a 9.04 @ 155mph in a 3,900# car. When the car came from SLP new it had the SLP "2OTL" exhaust, and at the end, with the car running low 9's, he still had the 2OTL tips welded on the end of his 4" Mufflex single-out catback. On that car, it looked "muscle car".... and no one questioned it, even if it was just a little to the left of the 'chute hanging on the back bumper

i dig it, but only on the camaros. it was availible on the firehawks, but i dont like it with those lines. it sounds awsome hands down. it does take getting used to though. for looks nothing beats the WS6 LT1 tips. yeah they are stock LS1 tips, but they look great on formulas. TAs need a little more. but this is just me.

to answer your original questions. no they arent euro at all.

it gives it a V6 look.
It looks better on a Camaro since the Trans Am's have cutouts on both sides of the bumper for the exhaust tips.
My brother has the 2OTL on his 96 Trans Am.

I'm into the "V6 look". My car has no badges, either.

Yep.... my buddy likes the stealth look too. I guess I need to take the "Formula V8" sticker off mine so it has that V6 look.

Personally I love the looks of it on Camaros and Formulas, just not TAs.

I have 2OTL on my Z28 right now. When I was buying the car I thought I was going to change it instantly, but it grew on me quick. I love it now and it is relatively quiet until you get on it, then it opens up to a nice level...
