Need advice on full exhaust setup I’d appreciate if anyone could give me some advice on my exhaust setup. I currently have a 2002 Trans Am with a stock engine. I want to get the meanest & loudest setup I can without introducing any rasp to the exhaust note. Looking through the threads, it seems that avoiding rasp is difficult. I plan on putting a bigger cam in the engine at some point, so I want to find something that will sound good with the stock setup, and still sound good later on after the engine is modified. I was looking at getting American Racing Headers w/cats, and a GMMG chambered exhaust. The Headers cost a damn fortune, so if I can go a cheaper route to save money and still have it sound great, I would rather do that. If anyone has the time, this clip has the best sounding exhaust (imo) for my car..
I know that car is heavily modified, but the closer I can get to that sound, the better. The description of the video mentions sweet thunder exhaust, but I could not find those on google. The closest I could find was the GMMG exhaust.
Sorry, I know exhaust questions are a dime a dozen on here, but any advice you can provide would be awesome, thanks!

Dumped or ota true duals will do it. No rasp and loud. Sounds great as well. Much better than that dude's car.
Also ARH makes a great header but there are other options if your looking to save some coin. I just got tsp 1-7/8 headers and once you get the car up high enough they slipped right in. All I removed was the steering linkage. And that was to get the pacesetters out. Takes less then 2 minutes to remove.
A super budget alternative but still better than eBay is speed engineering.

Also some guys get rid ove the "mufflers" that come with the SE dumps and put a set of powerstick chamber mufflers in place and they sound amazing. Do some YouTube searching on it, see what you think.
