Arrow I Want a Loud Catback Exhaust But Can't Decide

So I removed the resonator and the mufflers on my SS after like 2 months. I got my car in december of 2009, it's a black on black 2010 SS with automatic transmission. It is very loud and I like it to be loud, but there isn't really a tone to it and that's my problem. So I'm looking for a catback exhaust that has a nice tone to it (like flowmaster) but is also loud. The flowmaster American thunder system is great but I dont think it's as loud as I want it to be based on the videos. And my price range is around 500-600

Try a Nickey chambered exhaust! Nothing, but nothing sounds like a chambered exhaust.

Btw, chambered exhaust was an option on Z28s, ZL1s and Nickey Super Camaros back in the day, too!

Sounds like borla atak is what you're after. Almost has the same volume as straight pipes but with a much better tone. Put some headers on with it and it's one of the sexiest sounds you will ever hear.

IMO...Stainless works is louder and sounds better than Borla, I have Stainless works retro chambered and had them side by side.

Has anyone heard the dynomax 3" stainless catback with bullet mufflers, it looks like it would be pretty loud.
