Same here. I talk on the phone (hands free of course) quite a bit.

Unhappy I miss the Hemi rumble.

I have an L99 with a tune which disables AFM. I want to hold a conversation, but I wish there was some exhaust sound beyond the initial start-up. I feel it's the weak point of the Camaro.

I owned an auto Challenger & it had a sweet rumble. It's what I miss most about it.

I wish there was a reasonably priced axle-back that would accomplish it without replacing or deleting other components.

Muffler delete with a resonated x-pipe. Smooth rumble, volume just a bit over stock LS3 exhaust. Clean, no drone.

I want it as deep as possible. Very low tones and no cackle. Let 'er vibrate the windows. First exhaust mod was a 3" full length Magnaflow comp. cat-back. Then add headers without cats. She will now change your heartbeat at idle.

I'm running super 10's (3" in/3"out mufflers) ,with the car stock the sound was very sharp and loud and the deceleration pop was crazy (I loved it ).

Now that I'm full bolt on's (1 7/8" ceramic coated longtubes no cat's ,vararam OTR intake, fairly wet/rich tune (12.6 afr at wot) and few extra little things to complement the bolt on's. The sound is still pretty amazing definitely louder and still sharp , the declaration pop is pretty much gone from fatter fuel trims ( rich tune) not sure if that's good tho I really did like that Mac 10 decel pop

I'm running a flowmaster outlaw cat-back right now. I love it but I've gotten used to how loud it is. So around this time next week I'll have my noweeds installed

Fuse pull on the NPP for now, happy with it. I come from running MRT v1 on my old V6 so definitely gotta go louder. I plan on going with LT headers + high flow cats soon and go from there.
