There are plenty of options out to choose from depending on what you want. I put on a set of Supreme muffler GTA axel backs. They have a great looking tip on them and sound just a bit deeper and louder than stock. They are very reasonable price wise as well. I got mine from http://www.ninosport.com They offer great service and good prices. I have used them twice now and I highly recommend them. Here’s the direct link to the GTA mufflers.

why are you telling him about your mufflers when he wants to DELETE them?
knucklehead
red dragon is right, SLP loudmouth is the only option other than having a muffler shop custom make some delete pipes for you. The SLPs run for 350 at dagostinoracing.com. A custom set from a muffler shop will cost you just as much or more.

You'll probably get better quality welds at the shop than the SLPs. The twin wall tips are pretty flimsy. There was a thread where people posted pics of their SLPs that fell apart due to rust/corrosion.

So you can replace them every few years when the welds/material breaks apart? I asked SLP about the busted axle-backs and they "weren't aware" of anything and said their tips were of the highest grade T-304. Yet, there were gaping holes in the SLP LM's posted here in TMS.

Yes I am aware of their warranty. So you can look forward to swapping your SLP LM's every year because the welds and materials fail due to corrosion. The Supreme GTAs have a MUCH shorter warranty. However the FRPP 5GTs/Borla Stingers have a lifetime warranty, and I have not heard of similar failures.

what i do not like is that the boom tube in reality has the muffler in the tip so the sound is not the same, i would rather have a shop make some pipes and hangers and just a buy some tips
