I've always loved the sound of Magnaflow mufflers.

Personally, i suggest you try straight pipe, then, since it is so cheap to do, if you dont like it, get a muffler/system.


Here is bone stock with a drop in K&N and !cat.




Here is modded with headers(mids). 357 cubes, ported heads, cam and all that.



Edit: The second clip also has Borla tips.

Are you just doing a catback or True Duals? If your doing a CB I'd say go with magnaflow because they have a great tone. For TD's I'd say some Single Chamber Flowmasters or Magnaflow Magnapacks. Now if you just want to be as loud as possible, I'd say invest in a cutout.

Going to a Magnaflow muffler will likely free up some hp and sound better in my opinion, but probably not louder.
