How loud

How loud are these Corvette Central Exhaust system hideaway mufflers?

I have run those mufflers but with muffler shop pipes. Quiter than glasspacks but louder than stock. Some drone but not bad. Sounds good as you go by. http://m.youtube.com/index?desktop_u...?v=KUY8Sylxn4g

How loud do you want to be? I have chambered pipes. They are loud but not loud enough for me. I do get compliments on its sound though.

Hi, I haven't driven the car but at idle I do have a drone inside. It's the 2.5 setup with the stck hide away mufflers. If I could be sure a H pipe would get rid of the drone I'll stll add it. It's not too loud but I would prefer it a tad less loud.

I haven't pulled the trigger on it yet, but I was looking at Corvette Central's deal on a complete 2 1/2" dual exhaust with Magnaflow mufflers. They only want, like, $340 plus freight. Sounds like a heckuva deal, to me.
