magnaflows tend to make v6s sounds really Supraish, so im not sure what sound your going for. Try the magnaflow site and listen to v6s, try the CTS and a mustang if you want. And even try the G35. Just play around on the site and see if you like the sounds that are comming from the v6s. Obviously they are going to be different but it gives you an idea

Just from comparing catback vs. axleback, it looks to be 2-3. But don't quote me on that.

your v6 would be the only one in the world if it sounded like a v8. I've never heard one sound like a v8. Somebody even posted a camaro recently running straight pipes and it did not sound good. 100% not like a v8.

Unfortunately, if you do not know someone with the exact same set-up there is no way to find out EXACTLY how it sounds. You need to let him do it and if you do not like it, when you hear something better, you replace it. It is the Bad part about being an early owner of any model car.....you get to experiment and set the standard.
