Loudest exhaust system

Of all the systems out there, which one do you guys think is the loudest. I want ear shattering wake the dead kind of loud without going straight pipe.

I had a stainless retro catback hooked to stainless works headers and high flow cats. Even ADM commented how loud it was. Too loud for me, but might work for you.

Straight pipes or cutouts. No reason to put up the money for anything else if you just want loud

Yup. With headers and no cats it is without exception the loudest thing I have ever heard on the street. Wide open pipes all the way with a weak X-crossover and the J-pipes which do nothing to muffle as far as I can tell. Park someone in the back seat with binoculars to watch for cops behind you.

I knew I'd need to add mufflers but thought It could be driven home first. After hearing it at the shop I'm scared to drive home. It would be outlawed at some dragstrips.

Just wait till you turn 50 and your hearing is shot. Quality over quantity......

Hahahaha I can imagine. I'm only 21 so I got a few more years yet but guns don't help the hearing that much either. As for exhaust I'm liking the sound of the MSRP.

51 today. I knew muffling would be required, and I chose the MBRP for the price and the freedom to customize that it offers. I can't leave anything alone and didn't want to cut up a high dollar SS catback. I also liked the Helmholtz resonator tech. I'm sure its much more tolerable with stock manifolds and cats.

My first addition will be a Magnaflow 2-in 2-out crossflow muffler hopefully at the stock X-pipe location if I can make it fit. If that isn't enough maybe a couple smaller full boar bullets or similar in back.

Eventually I want to re-enable the NPP with manual remote switching but I'm trying not to have to pay $325 each for the SW 3" valves. Working on making my own of of some originals.

Me too. There will be videos. Heck I'll even get the wide-open pipes video for kicks. Been without the car for 3 months now because it has been a LT4 SC development mule for DMS with parts and a shop move delays contributing to that, but hope to have it back by next week. Crossover muffler is sitting right here waiting!
