hooker is quiet with LT's and even quieter with stock manifolds.. now if you have heads/cam and such, I am assuming it would be louder.

my brother has corsa with head/cam/SLP LT and the sound on the inside is non-existant, crusing is o.k. and at WOT its hellish. We get asked what exhaust we have on all the time plus the premium tips are sweet. It does have an exotic sound to it
