Ok guys I've got an '88 notch, 306, E-303 cam, and more...But anyways, going on to exhaust options...Right now I'm running Hooker Super Comp shorty headers, to a BBK Offroad H-Pipe, and Dynomax Super Turbo mufflers...I'm switching to an Offroad X-Pipe and also swapping out the mufflers...Damn dynomax's are just too quiet and sound like a tractor at high RPM's...I like loud, but not open header insane loud...A nice tone might be nice also...I was gonna take my tail pipes off and do Flowmaster Super 40's dumped...Any suggestions on different mufflers? I would go with Borla XR1's, but way too expensive. Taking any suggestions, thanks. Also wondering if there is any difference between the Super 40's and Super 44's? I've been told the new ones are no different or even more quiet.

It has to do a lot with your personal preference. The dumps have grown on me, as I used to not like them, its gives some what of an unkown factor. I have shorty headers, catless h-pipe, slp loudmouth mufflers, e-cam.. and the list goes on. But it has a really aggressive sound through all rpm ranges. I have it idling right a 950rpms and it has a really nice lopey idle. Also, everyone, atleast around here, has flows so its somewhat of an original sound. I def. get a lot of compliments on its sound.

stock engine, MAC shorties, BBK catted H, Flows, sounds pretty good, probably would be enough with a cat, but I think it could sound more aggressive.

The Dynomax bullets with tailpipes sounds pretty damn good. You must have the regular mufflers. The bullets are loud.

Ive got the super 44's on my car. Sounds real good, to me anyway. I bought them because they are pretty small and compact and tuck up under their nicely.
Those pypes mufflers sound good, but different. Id like to hear them in person.

+1 on the dumped bullets, 2 1/2 inch o/r H pipe and Bullets sound great ( I think the X cam helps a bit too )

All depends on what you like. I have bbk shorties, mac OR X and a mac catback and I really like the sound. Personally I dont care what anyone says about the quality because the catback and mid pipe went on peice of cake and has been apart many times. Here is afew videos:
