Look at what the factory is doing----cadillacs/corvette/camaro and others have the mufflers at the rear bumper with 4 outlets and the engines still crank out 300-400 hp and are still pretty quiet.
1) i think the closer mufflers are to headers the quieter or more mellow the sound is?

2)thats alot of mufflers, i would think that would make more noise due to more exits for noise possibly?

and i believe the factory corvettes caddys etc have computer controlled mufflers with valves, thats right you littaraly hit the loud pedal
