that would be loud.. what transmission do you have? nothing sounds worse than too loud pipes on a slushbox.. i have the ford racing headers, bassani x pipe with the high flow cats, 3 inch mac catback.. i like how it sounds and i wouldnt have it any louder.. if its too loud people call the cops when you mess around, the cops can hear you a LONG way off and its no fun on a road trip with no cats or mufflers.

keep it throaty, deep, subtle at idle and a thunderous monster at WOT.. a slushbox needs a tamer exhaust IMO.

If you want a "muscle car" sound then go with an H-pipe

Whats wrong with the BBK X-pipe? Everybody seems to prefer Bassani for some reason.

Go Bassani. I recently bought a BBK X pipe and I had to get the air hose rewelded because it wasn't set to manufacture specs. I thought it was just the because of the one I got so I had them send me out another one and same thing. I haven't heard this issue with Bassani.
