Ive got a guy in McKinney who is going to do an xpipe, TD setup for me dumped for 450.. is that a good price?... its not going over the axle and seems fairly simple, it pretty much looks just like a foxbody xpipe dumped. Something is telling me i can find one cheaper, or a used one that is already fitted.

Different not louder.

To the OP that sounds really similar to my system (Magnaflow) too.

an aftermarket cam does make the car sound louder imo. Especially considering that it turns more RPMS with the cam.

It depends entirely on your setup. I have been saying this forever but nobody listens to me .When my car was stock, the magnaflow was almost too quiet. Once I went heads/cam/lts/ory/+compression... it was way too loud and I swapped it for something quieter.

We should get together and do an exhaust comparo vid. Car sounds great, but I have also heard it in person and know how awesome it sounds.

Your vid helped me decide to ditch my loudmouth and get a Magnaflow. Thanks!
