$40 muffler delete. sounds stock at idle, but much louder at WOT.

the 4 cats do a good job keeping the sound down IMO.

You're just running straigh pipes and it isnt too loud? I would figure a lot of resonance on the freeway, especially for the 200 mile trips to school and back.

For looks and sound there is only 1 option .... Bassani.

I went with the Bassani BX, and it is just loud enough to drown out my wife's nagging from the passenger seat.

I have had the JDM SB for years and absolutly love it. I recently installed long tubes and high flow cats. My plan was that I would leave the SB on till I could afford a different cat back for my set up (it is loud with the long tubes) but after driving it from Jersey to Charleston SC, and everyday to work......I'm hooked! It is the sweetest sounding system I have ever heard! There is nothing like the growl on start up, the rumble at idle, and the fierce nasty but clean ROAR at WOT!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm leaving it just like it is!

As Rob would say
Its freakin amazing! WooooooHooooooooooooooo!

IMO, the Flowmasters didnt have a high pitch to them at all, they just didnt sound quite right to me...maybe on a Camaro or something, but not on a L...
Thats the impression they left on me when a truck with the american thunders came into my shop at school and i love the sound, but i guess it has to do with your personal prefrence as to what feels right...

LMAO!

Anyone have anything beside the BX? Can someone explain the differences with other Bassani systems from experience. i.e. sound, price, fit, etc.
