  • What exhaust should I buy?

    Well I just got my car a little under a month ago...its my first car (99 bird). I want the car to sound much better then the stock exhaust. I have almost 500 to spend...whats the best sound I can get for the best price? I want something sounding mean at idle...and something thats not goin to give me a high rasping noise over 3k RPMs. Anybody have any personal experience?

      Can anyone else give me any advice? I have my money in my hand ready to buy something. Nobody around here has a v6 fbody with aftermarket exhaust so I dunno what sounds good/bad. Any opinions are appreciated!!!

              Edelbrock is a little quieter and less raspy than the Flowmaster. Remember, the louder it gets, the worse it sounds, in general.

                Yea i would try some pacesetters and a flowmaster 80 series catback has a great idle sound real deep and strong sound only raspy when you really get o n it 4.5 or 5 rmp

                  Maybee thast what I need, I have a 3inch setup with a carsound and maybee I just haven't heard it in a long time from the outside, but it's kinda getting on my nerves. I mean i got a compliment on it an hour ago but still, it's like there has to be something more. Maybee i'll get some headers one day.

                      I'm waiting on a sound clip for the new TSP Rumbler Cat-Back. A good setup is...

                      Pacesetter CC Headers
                      3" Carsound Cat
                      ???

                      The first two ARE REQUIRED!! [img]graemlins/bowdown.gif[/img]
