Default Loudest exhaust setup

I've done a search on the forum regarding exhaust and have found plenty of info. on performance enhancing inhale/exhale mods for the Z06, but I'm looking more in the direction of "loud as hell".
What products should I use? I'm in a non-sniffer county, so I was thinking an offroad H pipe or something along that line. I'm a Ford SVT refugee, so I don't know much about vette aftermarket products. Thanks in advance!

From what I hear the Borla Stingers are really loud, although if you want super loud the B&B "Bullets" actually say "REALLY LOUD" in the description and really don't have mufflers at all I don't think.

Add headers and an xpipe on top of that and you'll have one screamin demon

I am not sure why you would want to be loud as hell. But if you really want the car to be annoying go with long tube headers, no cats, and the SLP loudmouth cat back.

Hey Sharkbite the loudest exhaust you can get is the one I used to have it is the Corsa Ti Race Exahust. It has no mufflers just some tubes that look like bullet mufflers. If you are going to go with no cats that is by far the loudest, meanest sounding exhaust out there. It is a little expensive but it is also made out of Titanium so it is super light.

Check my sig. My setup is pretty Damn loud.
But if you want the loudest. Here is your ear prescription.
LG Pro Long Tube Headers with Off-road cat-less x-pipe and SLP Loud Mouth.

That is going to be Loud as hell and you will get some serious resonation too. You might as well sell the stereo cause you won't be able to hear it.

I have the BB Bullet with long tubes and x-pipe and it takes on a whole new meaning of loud...up-to 3000 rpm it is very low pitched and resonates, over 3000 rpm higher pitched and much louder...

very nice quality and welds too...

PS, unless you have cams or cams and heads or it is blown then don't expect and HP or TQ gains it will loss power without a tune!

email me if you have any questions.

SLP Loudmouths are pretty crazy! I had the Corsa Indsys before the Loudmouths and haven't stopped since. If you want to scare old women and children...SLP's

A blower pushing air thru Bullets is very loud but it's actually an exotic sound.

SLP headers, Stock cats, Magnaflow X-pipe, B&B BUllets. Plus Partition, Cargo mat, and Cover for that hole in the Back.

This set up gave me Loud outside the car and fine inside the car. I actually have very little resonance, believe it or not.

I will say that the Bullets were the last thing I added, and that the SLP headers actually made the stock Ti's more quiet
