Default mufflers

Ok tryed the search and as I expected I didn't find an answer. This may seem odd to y'all but I have got complaints from neighbors thru HOA about the car being loud and I need to correct it. Does anyone have a handle on a quite muffler to use on WS6 with cam & headers?
TIA

Honestly if you want it really quiet, find a stock cat-back. If you don't have any cats, get some. And if you still want it to be able to be loud, look into an electric cutout.

LT, into stock muffler cutouts. Its an older community and I think its the initail start on cold engine where it barks rhen lopes to smooth purr. I dont think its loud and car is out on driveway all the time. Got a 3500 stall and of course it sounds like its moving 40mph when going 15mph to them.

I have Pacesetter LT, ORY and Aerochamber and it barks like hell on initial start up(and pretty loud otherwise).
I think any aftermarket exhaust (with headers and no cats) are going to be too loud/raspy for you neighbors.

I think LSrob00 hit the nail on the head to please your neighbors.
Good luck!
