Default true duals sound clips inside..need opinions!

tell me what you think. LT's/cats/H-pipe/2.5" over axle w/ magnaflow mufflers (part #10416)

****3 clips before watching you have to switch it to windows media player at top of clip to have sound for some reason.

Those clips are hard to tell anything from. I want a pure idle clip from under the car. Can't even tell it is cammed from the 3rd video harldy. Even with 6 degrees of valve overlap.

Ditch the tips. (just being honest)

Holy crap, we've got almost the exact same setup. I just had my exhaust re-dided last week and I used stock tips too. I think they look as good as any. Some nice doubles would be #2 on the list, CME being #1 but stock is totally sleeper. Maybe push them in a little, they stick out a bit far from what I can tell but it could just be the angle.
My headphones aren't plugged in so I can't comment on the sound, but I'm guessing it sounds pretty sweet.

get back at me when you get a chance to hear it. The tips are flush with the rear bumper.

Sounds a little louder than mine, and without as much "snap" in the pulse note.
I've got 36" of glass pack mufflosity on each bank though and a lot of piping so that may be why.
Mine is damn near quiet as stock until you get on it pretty good.
Sounds very nice, I'd be happy with that.

Let me re-post.

The car sounds good! I was just telling you my opinion about the look of it. It just seems like a sleepy setup. From reading it I would have thought that it would have been louder and rowdy sounding.

you need to replace the magnaflow bullets with single chambers. that's my opinion

in my opinion, magnaflow never made anything that sounded good. i've never heard a car/truck/anything running a magnaflow muffler that sounded good. i don't know if i have a vendetta against the brand or what, but i just don't like their products. they make great quality stuff, their prices are very competitive, i really like their cats and i will be buying a set, but as for the mufflers...i just don't like any of them

"too loud" differs wayyyy too much from person to person. too loud for you? maybe. too loud for me? helllll no

single chambers won't be ANY louder than powersticks. if anything, i'd guess they would be quieter. powersticks are straight through. at least single chambers have a little baby baffle in it.

Depends on where I set the idle and spark.

I have to knock it down pretty good to get a noticeable chop but then stability decreases.
820 RPM is a happy spot right now but you'd have to listen close I think.
With the old dumped duals it sounded like a freakin tractor so its night and day.
I'm not as schooled as some in exhaust, so maybe others can pick it up easier than me, but mine is really tame right now.
I just got it done 3 nights ago so I have some playing to do yet.

Got any clips from when you had the spirals? Sounds decent to me, can't really hear the cam, but it doesn't sound bad. One chambers will be loud, but will sound very good.

Maybe a little more tuning could make it a little more choppy. I think your exhaust sounds pretty good. As far as single chambered flowmasters go, I absolutely LOVE mine. It sounds so mean. I drove it today and it took everything I had to keep my swimmers from gettin out. Your car may be quiter than mine since you have cats. I don't know how much difference the cam makes either. Mine is quite loud though. Here's a clip if you would like to check it out. I have some more too if you would like to hear.

jlashley: That's probably one of the top 3 quietest dual setups I've heard on our cars. It's got a very deep tone to it, I think the cats have a lot to do with it.

schtick: Loving that MS4 aren't ya! Car sounds real good.
