    My new set-up doesnt make me happy.

    I got new 3 1/2 non-res tips, magna-flows and rear cat's delete done today. And it has a AWESOME sound to her. Real low grumble, never raspy, deep v8 tone. But its not loud enough for me, even at WOT. What should i do now other then headers? Will the vortech make it louder?

    Yes the blower will make it louder

    that was maybe 3 years ago, it's the setup you have plus a blower

    Matt.....

    Give it a little time as the Magnaflows get louder the more you use them!!

    I've had mine 4 years and they are almost too loud for me...NO DRONE but they do talk!!

    BTW, I have the 18's!!

    Not familiar with "Quick Flows" but my 18's are straight through also and got louder in a month or so......give it time before you cut them out!!

    Give them some time, if still not happy get a full exhaust system (LT headers, 1 pair of magnaflow high-flow cats, all 2.5 Mandrel bent piping from front to rear)

    agreed they do get louder, with the blower and the power and then the headers and 3" exhaust and the magnaflows being 4 years old I had to go to some dynomax superturbos to try and quiet it down.
    It was pretty nuts volume wise once the headers and such went on, in the video it was just 1 set of cats stock magnaflows etc.

    Were you manually shifting it? I heard it hit the rev limiter between 1st & 2nd and 2nd & 3rd. I think you would have had a better time if it wouldn't have hit the rev limiter. I've found it best to just leave it in drive.

    you want to put on a centrifugal S/C to make your exhaust louder? what the hell?



    magnaflow's arent the loudest muffler, why didnt you get SLP's or aero's if you wanted obnoxious

    I ordered Aeros and they never came in, so i said f-it and went to my muff guy and he swore on the magna's. I didnt want it flowmaster obnoxious, just wanted my low rumble a little louder.
