I got the Mid-America ones, but not soon after the mount broke. 
If I had to do it again, I'd just take it to a shop and have them straight pipe it, with either the stock tips, or you choice of tips.

After many hours reading all the posts on exhaust, I took the 2 step approach. First I went to my muffler place and had them take off the mufflers and replace with straight pipes and put the great tips back.
Then I drove it expecting to return later, step 2, to add some type of performance muffler.
Guess what?
Step 2 not needed. The vette sounds great, my wife and I can have a normal conversation unless I nail it and even then it's not overly loud. Just real nice and much added power.
All the brain damage trying to decide was well worth it. Thanks all.

I changed to a Power Effects exhaust, and that is marginally better.

I. too. did the muffler elim thing, from MAD, just to try it out until I got my B&Bs. I liked it so much I kept them on for almost a year. I have a vert and noise wasn't too much of a problem unless I took a long trip. My radio was not used very much. Yes, it was loud. I even had a cop pull me over and he wanted to know what exhaust I had as it sounded so good. Come to find out he had a 94 Vette and wanted the same sound.

Thanks for the info guys. Looks like I'm gonna pick up some 3" pipe and do the hack and weld thing next week sometime. I won't know how it sounds till spring, but I won't have those HP robbing mufflers in the way.

I purchased a pair from ladyvetter@aol.com. Nice craftsmanship. Solid mounting points (uses original hardware). I got the stainless tip model (a la C5). The noise is not bad; rumbles through the neighborhood; definitely can't sneak around now...
