Default Deepest exhaust

I currently don't have a catback on my 96 WS6. I want to put one on because it's annoying. I know there is a thread about the best exhaust so please don't refer me there, because I want to know what you guys think is the deepest sounding exhaust, by deep i mean rumble kind. I think you guys know what deep means right. Anyway I'm not looking for the loudest or best tone i just want the deepest tone.

Sorry for the long post just didn't want people flaming me for askin this question.

Catback wise I'd say GMMG, I've heard it on a stock LT1 with stock manifolds and cats and it sure sounded deep and mean. It's deeper sounding than when I had my Flowmaster Catback which was deep, only downside is the $700 price but well worth it IMO.

If you don't care about 3-5 horsepower, just get a FLOWMASTER MUFFLER if money is tight, and a Flowmaster CAT-BACK if you have a little more....There are gonna be people who say no-way,waste of money, but Flowmaster WILL BE the lowest grumble/loudest --over magnaflow,dynomax,etc...

i like my magnaflow, no drone and with the LT's it sounds mean especially when i get on it. or you could get a cut out, i thought that sounded the best with stock manifolds and a cat.

The DEEPEST? I'd go with Dynomax UltraFlo's. It may not be the loudest, but it's definitely the most throaty and has the deepest note.

I beg to differ. Flowmaster sucks at flow and sounds quiet.

Get yourself a LM and Get a borla xr1 instead of the SLP resinator.

Or get Longtubes and leave them open.

I beg to differ also...LM + any straight through muffler..??? Might as well run open pipe and be a GHETTO-MAN..... will sound the same as an open cutout....very trashy...fine on track--not on street..... BTW----FLOWMASTER does NOT sound as quiet as other mufflers..check some decibel charts... there are many to be found...

I have a Dynomax Bullet dumped infront of the rear axle. It is deep, shakes the whole inside of the car.

Really....I had flowbastard on my car for 8 months, its junk. LM and an Xr1 (BorlaMouth) sound kick ***. The 80 series crossflow muffler that works for our 1in/2out exhuast flows like dick and sounds just as good.

TD's will always be deeper. But if you want a catback corsa is sex on anything..but expensive.

I'd say the borlamouth is one of the deepest setup's I've heard. I also like a deep, throaty sound and have pretty much got that out of my exhaust. Check out the clip....it will only sound deeper and better on an LT1.

flowmasters are crap. I swapped mine for a dynomax bullet on my old car and the difference in power was actually noticeable, and the sound was much better.

every ******* redneck truck has them too. Along with most camaros, older cars, firebirds, etc. etc. etc. Sorry I like my ride to sound unique.

isn't there a flowsheet somewhere of a stock 4th gen V8 muffler outflowing a flowmaster 80?

I got my flowmaster for free, and you know what? You can't beat free mods! I am getting a true dual setup sometime soon tho! My f'ing y-pipe is pissing me off so f'ing bad. And the flowmaster is getting a little old, plus i need new tips lol.
