There's loud and there's obnoxious and everybody has different tastes, tollerance level. Flowmaster drones and I'm not a fan (although Raj's car sounds awesome in vids). Magnaflow have a throaty, muscle car growl and I like 'em. Borlas have that 'i kick a$$' sound IMO. Here's an LS3, x pipe and Borla XR1s:

John,
The only thing I would add is to reconsider dumps before the axle. They will make one whale of a mess under the car blowing dust, dirt, and debris everywhere! Just something to think about your car is too nicely detailed to deal with that all the time!

Both good advice!
Heres a video someone posted on Youtube a few years back of my old Mustang with 3" and Spintechs. Sounded cool, but loud!

The most frequently asked question about my car is what mufflers do you have. I've been told it sounds like a cup car by multiple people.
It's definitely not quiet when you're hard on the throttle but tolerable at low rpm and idle.

That set-up sounds exceptionally good Ron.

So no dumps anymore if they will make a mess of things. Should I get the 2.5" or 3"?

Here is the cam I have and Id like it to sound like this car....

This appears to be the system: http://dougthorleyheaders.com/produc...productID/1044

Sounds good at idle, under a load and at RPM?
