Question Recommendations on mufflers?

I had the flow master 1 chamber mufflers installed today and they sound like $hit and I was just wondering what mufflers sound good and if any one has any sound clips of different mufflers. I had the 2 chamber flowmasters but wanted to try a change to something maybe a little louder and/or better sounding. I have 2 1/2" off road h-pipes and headers.

I've got Dynomax Race Magnum Bullits and they sound mean! I don't know if they sound like a flowmaster one chamber or not cause I've never heard them. My car sounds so mean with the combination of the pipes and a big cam that no one wants to race me.

i have flowmaster 2 chamber's, they sound great outside the car but they have way to much interior noise for me between the 2000 and 3000 rpm levels for me

I've got 3 chamber Flows and mine are still pretty loud with 2 1/2" pipes and no cats. I don't think either me or my neighbors would want it any louder.

The 1 chamber’s have less interior noise than the 2 chambers did but I don't like the sound, they are much louder outside the car though. The sound is not deep anymore and sounds too much like a camaro or a truck.

Cool, let me know when you get some sound clips and if you can get them soon, like before Friday that would be even better cause I think I am going back to the 2 chamber flows on Friday.

The 1 chamber’s are sounding better than they did when we put them on. I don't know why. Is it possible for the mufflers sound to change because it sure sounds like it?
