What is the quietest performance muffler?
Anyone know what the quietest performance muffler for our cars is?
I'm trying to quiet it down to avoid potential run-ins with the sound police, or any police that happen to hear the engine winding out...
Thanks

I have a Hooker system now...and it's pretty loud under acceleration. Sometimes it's cool, but most of the time I'd like to "feel the power" in stealth mode.

PS: SFB767: I sent you a PM.... I'm interested in the muffler.

SLP dual/dual muffler, or Dynomax Ultra Flow in stainless steel, not the welded flowmaster look alike. They both by far are the most quiet, and don't hurt power. I only picked up about 3 RWHP opening my cut out when I had the dual/dual. A friend of mine w/ a H/C SS had similar results and made about 100 more RW than me.
FYI - SLP has discontinued the dual/dual, but I see lots of people cutting them off because they want it louder.
I wanted louder, and went true duals FTW.

Probably a Magnaflow muffler.
That was my first mod. ever and it was a hair louder than stock.
Let me know if you want to buy mine with its outlet pipes. $40.

After I had it installed, I turned the key, and my immediate thought was, "Sh**, waste of $200."

I had the cat back on my car for quite some time. First, my car was mostly stock w/ !cats & stock manifolds. Then with LT's & an ORY. It was very mellow, and was great at highway speeds. When I knew I was going to retire the car from DD duty, I went for the TSP duals. I don't mind it being loud when I only plan to drive it 2, maybe 3 days per week.
I like both, but prefer the duals now because they just sound so damn awesome. But, if I were building another LS1 car with the intention of a DD, or needed it quiet for a particular reason - i.e. neighborhood assoc. - I would go with an SLP dual/dual in a heartbeat.
I am on my 4th exhaust system on my car currently.

4th cat-back, man, that's crazy.
After I had my LTs installed, my car sounded incredible, then a month later, I became bored with it and want it louder and throatier. I was thinking true duals, but I heard they rattle the hell out of your car.

For mufflers, you can go with the spiral flows. They are much more mellow at cruise & idle, and quieter in car. But, still very aggressive when you go WOT.
If you are interested in duals, I have a local hook up - $400 installed w/ all materials. This place is the only place I let toouch my car or truck.
