How loud is it going to be? Hey how loud will my Pacesetter coated emission headers be with a Pacesetter 3in y-pipe and with a turndown right after the y-pipe crossbrace? I will have no catalatic converters or mufflers.

I was thinking about putting a MANGAFLOW on it but I want to get a stainless steel one and I have to wait for the funds as of now. I like my car loud, but I want it to sound good any ideas for a cheap muffler?

I'm running the same set up with a Dynomax Race Bullet muffler. It's loud but tolerable. IMO it only sounds good at idle or wot. During normal driving, it kinda sounds like a farm truck that had the mufflers drug off.

I have KooK's stainless headers and dual 3" cut-outs 14" behind each collector, so I can only comment on what I have heard with my own ears.

I am goin to get the Exhaust that I want on it with the 3"-> 4" Y-pipe that I made..that will eliminate the rasp, and I am goin to put the Bullet in the 4" part to reduce it back down to 3" so it can be a little quieter and go over the Axle into a Muffler, or dual 3" out..
