Default Exhaust Question
I have a 2006 c6 and want to upgrade my exhaust ( it is way to polite)
Looking at the SLP Loudmouth II CATBACK. Any user experience feedback would be appreciated. Or if you have any recommendations
I want a more aggressive sound
Thanks
Mike

Default Fusions
I installed B&B Fusions more than a year ago and I'm very happy. With them open, you get an aggressive sound and with them closed, you have a sound a little louder than stock. Find someone in your area with them so you can judge for yourself.

I would look at the Magnaflow catbacks. They will add a nice aggressive sound without being too obnoxiously loud. IMO the loudmouth systems are too loud. Especially for something you would be driving a lot.

Check out the NEW Magnaflow I have for sale. American Muscle sound and
not objectionable drone on the highway.

B&B PRTs FTW. No drone. And sounds like American muscle.

Exhaust sounds are purely subjective. Check Youtube for sound clips and the For Sale section for some great deals on used systems.

I wouldn't consider purchasing a exhaust system based on a youtube clip! Sound accuracy is usually not even close. The different systems need to be heard up close and personal.

Twin MAGNA fLOWS are the way to go and if you have headers even better.
