Default 1987 Exhaust question

I just purchased a 1987 corvette L98 coupe. Noticed the exhaust is a little on the loud side. Looked underneath and noticed that super turbo was the muffler type. Can anyone out there tell me what type of muffler would give me a nice rumble but not drive me out of the car in the low gears?
Thanks

To answer your question though, I just put on a Borla cat-back system, and love it. No resonance, but loud enough to make people notice. I have an 86.
