Bruce,
You'll find out real fast that every time you drive your car it WILL get louder and louder as it blows the glass out of those 10$ glasspacks. I had the same setup. Your headers should be 2" pipes and your sidepipes should be the same size. But most Lonestars' sidepipes are only 1 3/4" and it chokes your engine quite a bit. I installed a set of 2" sidepipes from finishline after having them ceramic coated. Instead of glass packs, they have an auger type muffler that dosn't blow out and is a little quieter. Also, the turnouts of your pipes are probably 3", the ones from Finishline are 3 1/2". You're not too far from me, if you like give me a call and you can check them out .
