You could always just drive in 3 instead of drive and the DOD won't turn on. You will get bammer gas mileage though.

What kind of mufflers did you use? was there a model number?

Also what type of tips?

I have a 2006 Impala SS and I want a little better sound.

Do you still have the mid resonator?

Sorry so many questions

If you like loud inside and outside, then original 40 series. if you want quieter inside and decent outside, then delta flow 40 or 50 series.

Check this out.
