If you have the money, Corsa is the most popular choice.

Here's what I had on my 87. The stock exhaust was too quiet. My wife would not ride in the car with the muffler eliminators I put on as they were too loud when you got on it. These have a nice powerful sound that I think was a nice compromise. www.corvettecentral.com has a pair of these for the LT1 just under $250 with a special $10 shipping right now.

Mufflers and cat-backs of various brands (certainly the ones suggested here) turn up fairly regularly in the "parts for sale" section. I got my Corsas used for around $600 from a fellow member.
