Default what exhaust to get? (only loud when you floor it)

what kind of exhaust setup should i be looking at that is quieter at cruising RPMS, and loud when you really jump on it.....

im gonna get some bbk shorty headers, but i dont know what else to get...

i was looking the SLP LM2 setup but it just seems too loud...

can anyone find an exhaust that im looking for that fits my description

hehe i just had someone tell me the other day that i should put an exhaust on my car (they couldnt notice shiny slash-cut tips out back...). anyway he heard it at idle and told me this. i told him it has one and he continued to tell me it was pathetic (he was driving a firebird that sounded decent).

i just get in and peg it at 6 grand and let it drop down. he just shook his head and walked away.

flowmaster american thunder cat back with stock headers and h-pipe with 4 cats. it has set my friends car alarm off at WOT.
