exhaust question

Would my car sound louder then stock with this set up? A dynomax superturbo muffler with a high flow cat. Im still not sure what to get. Im thinking about getting something that sounds simular to stock but louder. Kinda like a sleeper exhaust. Any ideas?

Almost any aftermarket exhaust will be louder than stock. Not all though.

That particular setup will be louder than stock.

Yes, the dynomax cat-back sounds like what you're looking for. It's a little louder than stock, but not by much. The only downside is it's 2.5".

I have the superturbo. Its not really much louder then stock, but it has a deeper tone to it.

Will a mild cam give my car a choppyier idle or make it sound loopy or kinda like a big block? Its only a 268 degree cam with 450 lift. I called the exhaust shop and they didn't know. Any help would be great!

Depends on how big the cam is, is that advertised duration or actual?
