Default MRT exhaust

I love the stock exhaust sound, but would like to have a bit more rumble. Something that sounds mild until you rev it up and nail it. Any suggestions as to where I can listen to some sound bites/clips? I'm going to go to a cruise in on Sunday, maybe I can shoplift there. Anyway the MRT advertised what I was looking for but you know how that goes.

Since you love the sound of a stock system, it would be hard for anyone to suggest something you would like. I never heard of MRT. sound bites do not reveal actual sound, live exhaust tones are not only heard, they are felt in the form of sound pressure. anything you hear on line will be clipped and compressed.

Your best chance of finding a system you like would be in person at a cruise in. Your budget for an upgraded exhaust system would also help in the research to find something you like that you can afford.

I was thinking along those lines, but looking for a nod I guess. My budget is fine, I still have one arm and one leg left!

I forgot to mention … Welcome to the forum.. Since you have no budget restraints, Ill suggest the Corsa Sport system with an X Pipe. Since I spent three months in the development of this system for the 1998 Corvette Indy Pace car with Corsa engineers. Ive had this system on my car for 19 years. I could sell it tomorrow for 800 dollars, but there is nothing out there that delivers what this system does.. I still get amped up every time I start my car and run through the gears. its like music from heaven, even after 19 years. No drone, no obnoxious harmonics just a rich healthy tone.

Modifications can be expensive.. Not knowing anyone's financial status, its hard to suggest the high end, high quality stainless system American made and guaranteed for life system. Its what I have, but dont want to point people there without financial qualification.
