This was my first start up after we got the cams done, it's untuned but its pretty damn loud just idling. I'll be heading to NC in 2 weeks so im trying to get some rolling video on the way down and some videos going through the tunnel/bridge. People are gonna be like what the hell is that coming out of the tunnel!

I have corsa sport axle backs. Its before the headers and x pipe. Which it will get REALLY loud after that. but ill probably have resonators welded in before the axle if its too bad. I guess welll see. Anyways heres a clip. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pM7CN...&feature=g-upl
Its a straight through design so most people will match up an X pipe with straight through muffer and an H pipe with chambered muffler.
My suggestion is get the headers and mid pipe. You will get power from it then just keep switching axle backs until you find one you like. Installations on axle backs take like 20 mins. I picked up my corsa's for 250 shipped on forums. They are like 750 new. so you can find deals here and there. ALot of people are searching for that sound they want so they show up alot on forums..

Im starting to really consider that because a few people have told me that between this thread and my friends. I've never seen that though- long tubes and a catted xpipe with stock muffs. Im really leaning towards flowmasters hushpower muffs, which the only videos ive seen with those were 2011+ GT's. Not sure but i have a feeling they might be perfect after the headers.

that waaaay too loud for me Onederful lol. My neighborhood will kill me not to mention the cops. Sounds like it has a bad drone too unless its just the cameras fault.
Brent, I dont really like Mac too much because i dont know much about that brand. I think im settling with BBK LT's + the shorty catted X and then ending the exhaust with Flowmaster Hushpowers. I'm pretty close to ordering the flowmasters and doing that first though, from AmericanMuscle.com. I figured if they become too loud after the headers, ill just put the stock muffs on for a while and hopefully switch with someone who has magnaflows or something.
