Default Which Axle-back?

Hi, just got my '08 GT, and I want to make the exhaust have just slightly more volume than stock, but more important to me is I want a lower tone, with minimal interior resonance. I do NOT want "wake the neighbors" loud..it also attracts cops, which my former car did all too well. I do not plan on an ORH or headers or anything, at least not anytime in the near future.
Which would give me a deep tone, with minimal drone, etc.
I,ve seen several such as MBRP, Cherry bomb, etc that claim to have that "classic muscle car sound we all love" ? There are so many and I have heard none in person. I see a lot on here prefer the Corsa, but is it really loud, or more of a mellow tone?
Magnaflow?
Please help me make an informed decision.
Also, adding axle-backs does not require any tuning does it?
thanks

no, axlebacks do not require a tune. and I agree with the above, it sounds like you're looking for Corsa or FRPP GTAs if you don't want interior drone.

I have the GT's (FRPP Stingers/Borla) and they DO drone a bit. The GTA's are in between stock and the Stingers. My Stingers WILL turn heads from a distance at 3/4 or more throttle.
