Glass packs sound good... throaty sound. I didn't care for the racking off they tend to do. Also the interior resonance is terrible at freeway speeds with my 410's. I have flowmaster super 40's. I like them alot better.

I think SLP loud mouth 1's or 2's. I went with 2's just cause i wanted a deep sound, that still is pretty loud. Befor i had Flowmaster 40 series, and the slp's sound so good
