Default Exhaust?? Please help

So I just picked up my 06 Impala SS and I really wanna get some sound to her so I was thinking of bringing it down to our local muffler shop and getting some mufflers welded on...I don't want anything crazy loud just something that makes a nice tone to that V8. I was looking at mufflers at Advance Auto and didn't know if I should go with Dynomax super turbos, magnaflow's, flowmaster, or thrush? Any input on this would be very helpful! Thanks

Great thanks for your fast reply. I think I will go buy 2 Stainless Steel Magnaflows and have them welded on tomorrow with the stock tips. Do u think it will be really loud or decently toned?

magnaflows are probably some of the most toned mufflers, they are pretty mellow but when you get on it you will for sure know its a v8

Welcome! Post some pics of your new ride!

The topic of mufflers has been beaten to death and there are plenty of threads with the information you're looking for. Beofre you post a new thread, try searching for the info you need first.

From what I've read, Spintech adds the most sound. I hear Flowmasters aren't the greatest. Magnaflow, Dynomax and Thrush are all pretty good and I believe all get good reviews on here...for the most part.

Magnaflow tips are crazy beautiful. Muffler sound deep at idle and scream at WOT.
Spintechs are extreamly loud and have lots of drone!
