loud exhaust for V6 that won't be rice...
I know I know... it's asking alot... but hear me out...
I've pretty much decided on 2.5 inch system with tips that I got at a junkyard... crome 3" or 3&1/4 inch by 16" ***** cut tips that I'm going to use...
I'll also end up getting headers sometime in the future, as soon a Camaro_Hunter_D makes them for us... as well as a custom Y-pipe that will bolt up between them, and a Catco catalytic converter to keep everyone happy...
My question is what muffler to put in the system... i've heard that Super Turbo's are pretty quiet, and that flowmasters sounds really riceish once you get past 3000 RPMs... I've heard different opinions on Dyno max Ultra Flows... some say they're louder, some say quieter than SuperTurbo's...
What about cherry bombs, CVX's? Glasspacks? Aerochambers? Keep in mind that I'm looking for throaty and on the loud side... something compareable to my hole-ridden exhaust now (only not so damn loud inside, I wanna project that sound back, not right into my ears...)
Anyone have suggestions, beggars can't be choosers, I know... so if it's a difference between quiet and grumbly (and rice at high RPMS) then I have some serious thinking to do.
(oh, and if it matters, as I've heard it does... I'll have a custom KNN intake in the near future as well)

you can't make a V-6 sound good. I don't know why but you can't. You can make a straight six sound, OK (I guess) but not a V.</font>

Hey dude,
I know a lot of people don't think so, but Vortex Cherry Bomb mufflers rock. I've got one on my V6 and I'd compare it to an 8-I get it confused w/ an 8 ALL the time-(just by sound of course, cause it's slow as crud ) But the sound is really pretty deep-not at all like rice-somethin to look into-but that's just my opinion.
