I'm running the Flowmaster American Thunder and love the sound.

It depends on whether you want to go axle back or cat back, what you are bolting them up to i.e. stock exhaust manifolds, shorties or long tubes, and what you want to spend. If you are doing an axle back, I'd recommend the MRT 2.0's. Those do sound very good IMO. If you are going with an cat back system, ARK, SOLO and Corsa I think sound the best. They vary a little from each other in sound but if you're going for exotic, those are the 3 to choose from. SOLO's are about 900.00 Corsa's are about 1200.00 and ARK's are about 1500.00-1600.00 ARK's are very pretty, Corsa's tips are very nice looking and SOLO uses J-pipe technology and they produce no drone. Their 4 1/2" tips look pretty BAD too. SOLO's are what I went with and I am very satisfied. They're mated to Stainless Works long tube headers with high flow cats. At idle and low revving my car sounds very deep and very much like a V8. At WOT it's very loud and cruising at any speed I have no drone. LT headers produce rasp and I have some from 2900-3300 RPM. It used to be a wider spectrum of rasp but it is lessening the more miles I put on my set up. Have had my exhaust on for 11 days now.

I am really diggin it. I'm fairly certain my set up has got to be among the loudest of anyone on the forum. Anyone who stands behind while I'm revving sez it really hurts their ears. It's amazing how it shuts up though when cruising even with the LT's. The most delicious sound is at part throttle around 4k rpm. I drive around town mostly in 2nd and 3rd gear and 4th on the highway....yum. If I wanna feel and hear that low rumble then I short shift and keep it under 2k. "Is that the V8?" I got asked today. "Nope. V6" "Really?" "Really."

You're only in Kansas my friend, just click your heels and your yellow Camaro will take you there. Ha ha.
