Exhaust systems

Having just sold my 1970 J-Code Torino Cobra, there was a hole in my garage needing to be filled. Earlier this week I bought an '02 Lightning and would like to replace the stock exhaust. I'm aware of several brands of exhaust kits but have never heard any of them. I'd like something with a throaty sound, similar to the big block in my Cobra. What are the opinions and recommendations of the list members?

Thanks!

Mike

Just recently traded out my Borla for a Silver Bullet from JDM. The Borla can't be beat for fit and Build quality; but, you will not get anything like "the big block sound" from it.

Actually I would say more people use Magnaflow than Bassani.

I pulled my Magnaflow off and installed the Bassani.The Magnaflow is ok if you have to budget the exhaust but it doesnt compare to the Bassani.

I like the tone of the Magnaflow's. Here are some pics of my mufflers and JBA headers.

I'm thinking of ordering the silver bullet. Does anybody have any comments on quality and which Magnaflow is JDM using for the single muffler system?
