How loud will this be?

If I had an exhaust shop build me a cat-back with a 3 inch high flow cat, 3 inch tubeing that splits somewhere under the car and then has 2 moroso spiral flow's (one for each pipe), "Dumped" after the rear axle, how loud would it be/how would it sound? I'd also be putting the Edelbrock TES headers on as well
Thanks,
-Chris

LOL thats practically the same system i want to run. I can imagine a single spiral flow is gonna be fairly loud. two should be quiet enough that it doesnt hurt your ears or cant hold a conversation at cruise. It should be louder than a flowmaster or hooker catback. I say go for it. it should fit your needs well. The let me know how it goes so i can do mine! LOL

Should sound real mean and throaty..

I have a flowmaster 80 series and no cat on one of my cars, and even though it's a v6, I cant hold a conversation at cruise, and that really bothers me.


For my TA I am getting an electric exhaust cutout, because that way I can have the best of both worlds.. I even have a plan for a secondary dump pipe for the cutout so I will get some tone with my noise.


Lemme know how yours works out.
