Exhaust Preference

I have been looking into exhaust systems, I want a quieter system during idle, but load as hell when im on it. So that when im just cruising on the interstate its not annoyingly loud. I've been told that borla systems are that way and are pretty nice. Ive also seen a borla system that you can change the sound? This one right here. Is this worth looking into... Thanks

Any other system suggestions would be great too!

Re: Exhaust Preference

I had dynomax bullet muffler to replace the stocker and then one tail pipe. FLOWED like a mofo. quiet at idle/highway but when you got on it you could hear it. It was VERY LOUD with headers/off road ypipe.

Re: Exhaust Preference

Those options do not suit my car!
In terms of changing my cylinder heads or pistons, would my exhaust get a little louder?

Re: Exhaust Preference

Probably change the sound...but I doubt it will get louder.

I was being serious before. You want loud...take off your catback.

Re: Exhaust Preference

But how does that make it more loud? It would be the same thing as having the stock muffler and stock sound. When i got the flowmaster, it got louder and it has an agressive sound to it.
I have got 1 muffler and two pipes comming out of it and with exhaust tips.

Re: Exhaust Preference

I know how it works.
I mean take it off and don't replace it with anything.
Or do straight pipes.

Can you remove your cats?? That will make it louder and change the tone.

What is with the smoke??

The muffler or the pipes that i have right now?
What do you mean by *Can you remove yer cats?*
Comment: Its a v6, i dont think it would make a very big difference if i get straight pipes.
