I have a 3.1 V-6 91 Camaro RS and I was wondering about an exhaust system.. My muffer, pipes, everything is stock. In the next month, I'll probably have around $250 to put into an exhaust system for my car. Should I get a Flowmaster 80's series or some other system? Basically, I want the car to sound louder and deeper, like an irritated v-8. Should I put headers on too? Just keep in mind I'm on a budget. The absolute most I can put into the system is $350. Thanks guys.

All stock/replacement/repair except:
-K&N Filtercharger
-Copper-Core Superstock 7 mm spark plug wires

 

sorry! from what i have heard no one makes headers for the v6 any more. But the jegs book has a dual exhaust kit made by dynomax for the v6. the number is 289-17493 $151.99

 

Well, the news about the headers sucks...but I would love to get dual exhaust on the baby. I definitely want to keep my 2 tips..rectangular and diagonally cut chrome tips.. They look wicked. If the kit is only $160...then I should be able to afford it even with the labor cost added on. The money I'm putting into the exhaust system is my birthday money...otherwise it'd take me about 4-6 months to scrape up that much. When you're 16 and only make 5.40 an hour, options are few. Thanks again man.

800-888-8892 Don's Hot Rod Shop out in Tuscon AZ. He sells pipes and mufflers & Cat convertors.
The convertors he sell are those high price things, but he sell them for $60! 2 1/2" in-n-out.
Spend ya dough on making a better pipe from the exhaust manifolds to the CC. That bend looses lots of HP.
I want to find abetter pipe for that area, myself. I'll bet that'll free up to atleast 10 HP. I laready have a decent exhaust on my ride.
No true need for the duals. Honest. Dual tips, SURE, Dual pipe exit outta the back, SURE. I have that & I like the look, too!
Give this guy a call. He also sells Flowmasters & all other brands. He also sells pipes, too. Have it shipped an you assemble!

there is a good thread down the page a little about exhaust and sound. basically it will come down to personally preference...and i would have to agree i don't see where true duals would be benefical. i am running a hooker aerochamber on my 3.1 and love the sound....check it out.
