Default What is the quietest dual exhaust?

I know everyone wants the loudest, but I have a loudass V8 already and am wondering what is the quietest
V6 dual system? The car will not have headers or aftermarket cats and will be daily driver.

no prob. you're not going to find anything cheaper either. it's a good way to go if you're looking for duals on the v6

are you going to use an x or an h?

i thought the GT take-offs sounded somewhat loud in the videos and clips ive heard...i mean i dont want exhaust that are gonna rock the houses around me, but is the GT take off going to make somewhat of a sound difference or am i wasting my money....hopefully not cuz their on the way to my house right now lol...by the way im doing an H pipe if that makes a diff?

different people will tell you their opinions on X vs. H... it's really up to you. I'm keeping my single exhaust, but if I was going to switch to dual, I'd probably go H pipe.

I'm sure you can find sound clips of the GT take-offs on both x and h pipes... try to find a post with mods similar to the ones you have or plan on getting. then you'll hear the sound as close as possible to what your car would be.

the GT take-offs are MUCH louder than the v6 stock single, but not as loud as an American Thunder or MRT.

I've got the dual GT's w/ H-pipe. You'll like the sound, its a little deeper and throatier than the single v6 muff. Not obnoxious and won't wake the neighbors. A nice compromise between quiet and loud (IMO)

Surprisingly quiet in the cabin although I've noticed more vibration sounds in the cabin, mostly from loose plastic snap covers on the doors and panels. Sounds great when you get on it though!
