You're going to have to ask more specific questions if you want useful answers. Let us know whether your '88 is NA or turbo, for a start.

To make it sound meaner, upgrade the exhaust. By far, the nicest exhaust made for the 2nd gens are the exhausts made by Racing Beat.

True dual certainly is mean, but its seriously loud and probably not suitable in most people's opinions for a street car.

That's true. It's really loud, so include that in you're considerations
