Yeah, that would be pretty loud with longtubes and x-pipe but anyone have any experience with a Stinger axleback, with the stock components in front of it?
At a cost of around $1k, I could probably justify that, as long as the sound isn't socially-irresponsible. lol
1999 C5 M6, factory exhaust manifolds and H pipe with catalytic converters.

I’m pretty sure Borla is made from stainless steel, and has lifetime warranty, not cheap but it is more fun driving the car, the stock mufflers were just much too quite.

Borla 140038 S Type classic

Can hear better with headphones.
