Sorry to bring back an older thread, but I am curious if you ever installed the Hooker catback yet? I have a cam in mine similar to yours, and I need to change from a Flowmaster, as it is too loud and robbing power. I was seriously considering the Hooker as MF is just too quiet for me.

There's a couple of SLP Dual Dual mufflers for sale in the classifieds. That's the set-up I'd definitely go with. I had one on my old ws6 and I loved it. It was super quiet, absolutely no drone, and with a cut-out you could flip a switch and have loudness all of the sudden! I, unfortunately, traded it for a TSP Rumbler like an idiot before selling the car

*edit*I just realized that this thread was from February lol, hope you like your Hooker *edit*

That's what I was to an suggest as well. My firehawk with the dual dual is quieter than my friends car with the same mods and the magnaflow. It's also got an amazing wot sound that no other setup has. IMO it sounds nearly like a higher pitched c5 exhaust.

I have longtubes, 3.5" y and the 4" mufflex muffler and single hidden tip.



232/239 .617/.624 Off the top of my head. I have a cut out and I haven't opened it since the cam. I imagine it would be very loud. My car is very quiet on the inside, but very loud at idle on the outside. Cruising isn't really loud at all. The mufflex stuff is big and rattles alot. Mine hits my panhard bar.



EDIT: TOO LATE LOL.
