Will these JC Whitney bullets make a sound like that? I don't mind spending some bucks on it but I want a reasonable level of sound without losing too much hp. and I don't want to do it more than once.
JC Whitney bullets will be a lower cost option, but I'd go with the Flowmaster Slimline side pipe mufflers. Equal or more power and much cooler than single wall side pipe mufflers - cool enough that you won't need to remind everyone to watch the muffler on exit.

FM Slimline mufflers are slightly louder than original CR side pipe mufflers, but quieter than equivalent side pipe glass packs. Many prefer the sound as well - lower-pitched, more bass sound, that some mistake for a big block, even with a SBF. There's a long thread here ( http://www.ffcars.com/forums/17-fact...slimeline.html ), including a link to dyno testing (with sound level measurements as well) - see post #95.
