what would my camaro sound like with a cherry bomb's or other glass pack on it, and would it sound good, the one i have heard upclose & drivin sounds good, was on friends truck
what size of inlet/outlet would i need, i believe its still stock exhaust so does anyone know the size of the stock pipes?
would it be better to weld it up or use clamps? how hard would it be to cut out old muffler & tail pipe and put in one of these welding or clamping it in place?
all opinions are welcome, love'em/hate'em any other mufflers that would still give me the loud & racie sound thats still cheap, spent most of my $$ fixin her up, trans rebuild, replacing egr valve(3 or 4 times), heatercore & blower, tires. trying to stay around $50 for muffler, the cherrybombs i found online at autozone ranged from $25-$35 depending on size 2-3"..... i dont want to get flowmasters or anything of that sort until i redo the whole exhaust, high-flow cat & 3" cat-back system

I would stay away from cherry bombs if I was you...they might sound and look good for 6 months but when the glass inside breaks, you'll have crap coming out of your cherry bombs for a while and it'll sound like someones crapping. And after this, you have to buy and weld new ones on anyway. By the time your cars gone you would have spent way more than $50 replacing.
If your looking for a muffler, I went with a Terminator muffler by Flowtech. Sounds good and won't blow out like cherry bombs. If you search around you can find it for $80 online.
Crap, if you want a cheap muffler though that will last until you get a good system, look online for turbo mufflers, they can get pretty cheap and sound decent.
Good luck though

personally i like cherry bombs and if you dont want to worry about them blowwing out just pour some deisel down it abnd enouigh gas to get it to start (approx s tbl spoons) and let it burn lol
itll be a little louder and you still have the cherry bomb on it lol
loud pipes save lives
you can also buy a turbo muffler at a local perts store for around 20 to 30 start out and can get pretty pricey
good luck and hope its loud
also i always recomend welding

If their a glasspack, they'll blow out, no matter who makes them.
I reccomend going to your auto parts store and buying a cheapo turbo muffler.
I thought about Cherry bombs too, but everyone I talk to said their crap.

In case you were still wondering about your stock piping, I believe it's 2.5

would a Warlock Bypass Muffler be good? it has a 2-.50" Inlet & Outlet & 2-.50" Bypass Plate......or the flowtech Raptor Turbo muffler?

It really doesn't matter about the inlet and outlet size. I had a muffler shop put on a Flowtech terminator muffler on my Camaro with with 3" outlet and inlet, and still had the stock piping. Between those two you posted I'd go with the raptor, it would give you dual outlets instead of only a single.
Look into the Terminator muffler if you want...good sounding.
Flowtech didn't put it out that long ago so I'm guessing it's better than the raptor, but still good choices.
