Looking for an upgrade


I have an 03 GT. I want to improve my sound, to quiet right now. I am not doing a midpipe right now so what would be a good choice for a catback only that will give me a deeper, louder tone but not hella loud or droning?

Magnapacks, SLP LM 2 or Borla Stingers.

What will give me a better deep rumble with a stock midpipe, Flowmasters or the magnapacks?

At idle flows will, but at WOT the packs will.

Thanks. Neckbonekat, what part of NY are you in. I grew up around Syracuse, in Virginia now.

but if you ever get an o/r mid pipe the sound will drasticly change. the magnapacks will get really loud.

the o/r mid pipe might make it too loud for that person. mine is very very loud and has quiet a bit of drone, just giving a warning for future info.

I'm a bit confused. Are you complaining about the exhaust or are you just trying to tell him it's going to be loud. I have a friend with that exact setup on his '00 GT and it sounds wicked. If you don't like the sound why would you buy an exhaust system that advetise the fact that it is louder and has a more aggressive tone than most?

not complaining; just stating the fact that it is loud, thats all.
