Long tubes,and a nice cat-back set-up should work good,If your not impressed with your supercharger your pulley is too big or you used a Powerdyne

apolygies for the comment... when i had the shorties, i had the factory cats, true dauls with an h-pipe wiht single chamber flows and a dual side exhaust exit and it seem to flow/sound good. I at least would suggest an x-pipe over an h-pipe.
