Default ricer sound

SOrry if this is a little misleading. But i want to change out my mufflers for delta 40's but as of now i dont plan on changing to headers and my pipes. I will be using these new mufflers on a stock exhaust system. this wont sound ricer-ish will it :cry ? i just really want a better sound and cant wait for mre money. Im running a stock L-82

I can't imagine any V-8 sounding like those lawnmower like 4 cylinder econoboxes. If you still have stock heads and cats attached I imagine it won't be that loud, the cats muffle alot. Either way, no it won't have that ricer sound, don't worry.

Putting the Delta flow 40s will make a change in the way your car sounds but it will never sound rice with those mufflers and a V8. Go ahead and put them on. I think you will be happy with them.

The only bad thing it could sound like is a pickup, but those 40s are very popular and I think you'll end up with a good sound :thumbs:

I think my lawnmower sounds much better than those 4 cylinder econoboxes, much better.
