RE: Thinking about new exhaust
He has the MRT.
ORIGINAL: 28hopup
I have the GT take-off. It's definitely better sounding than stock, and is good for an add'l 8rwhp (they are cheap too [sm=smiley20.gif]). Mrs. 28hopup likes the sound of the car better now, even with the top down. It's more throaty, but not obnoxious. I forget what muffler fitbikeco is running, but his is louder and raspier than mine (I like it, but IMO I probably wouldn't on a vert the top down). Hope that helps...

Your wife will hate everything but stock. I have Magnaflow and it doesn't really quiet down until 85 mph.

RE: Thinking about new exhaust
Thanks for all of the advise. I bought GT take-offs from Diversified... installed it yesterday. Wasn't that hard... but had a little trouble lining it up properly with the bumper. Initially it was touching.. so I added a few washers to the back hangers and it seem fine now.
At first I really didn't notice a big difference in sound.. but was driving it around today with the windows down.. and I have to say that this is perfect. Exactly what I was looking for.
Thanks for the help...
Now that I have the driver's side exhaust too... maybe a GT rear bumper and an H pipe is in my future...

RE: Thinking about new exhaust
lol damn a MRT is pretty loud but I mean..it's not insane. I'm running no muffler at all with just the mid-pipe to a 45 degree adapter, to a magnaflow bullet tip with a custom hanger and it's pretty loud but damn...haven't you guys ever driven muscle cars lol? my camaro with mufflers and cats is louder than my mustang with no muffler!

RE: Thinking about new exhaust
IF your looking to be at gt sound level the mrt may be a little too much. The gt take offs are nice i had single then duals now im running magna flows but the gt takeoffs sound clean and its a littler louder than a gt at normal driving of course the v8 is louder at wot but what can you do o_O
