Run in with slow locals. Mercedes..new durango and a turbo v6 5thgen

Last night I went out to test my car for driveability issues I had from my old driveshaft. Along drive I come across a couple cars that quickly learned this clapped out looking turdgen aint no carbd 305 with a loud exhaust. The guys in the durango tried to talk **** after till I tossed a flame at the lights.

Why do slow cars pick a fight..lose and then act like the race never even happened.

How do you think it sounds being a turbo car with GMMG? I just swapped an LQ4 into my 85 Trans Am with a GMMG, but mine is N/A. I'm thinking about getting a blower in the future, but if the turbo doesn't take too much away from the exhaust sound with a GMMG muffler I may consider that too.

Honestly when my cutout is closed the gmmg is an aggressive sounding muffler even being a turbo car. Its got volume for sure and a deep bass note at idle. I imagine with a n/a car is would sound better. With a healthy cam the gmmg is unique.
