I'm running TPIS headers into a 3" xpipe then into a 2 1/2" Pypes system. I like the sound a lot better than the B & B system that was on it when I bought it. Minimal drone at 60 mph and awesome sound when you get on it.

people always worry about cops when their exhaust is "loud" truth is as long as you do go around smashing on your car youll be fine.

What is your tolerance for interior sound/noise? Many options for this car will leave you unable to hear anything but drone while driving.

I'm using truefx mufflers they were cheap got one at parts geek, they only had the divers side, (beware of there ad it looks like you can buy a set when in fact it is 2 mufflers but for one side of the car) the other side came from Summit at near the price of parts geek.

I like the sound at idle but when it reaches near the top of the gear it sounds odd, like an old GTX with stock exhaust.

For a cheap muffler they look good, like the original, did back when the car was new.

Someday if I decide tp keep the car, I'm going to a LT-1 system.

Dynomax ultraflos, will move more air than your 350 probably ever could

Welded ones are a little louder/dronier than the oval ones. Sound similar to Corsa but a straight through design.
