    well i have finally convinced the ole lady into letting me make my car a little louder.. with a nice grumble.. curently there are no resonators, just straight pipes back to the mufflers.. if i were to add a few magnaflow mufflers would that be too loud? i have the 4.2 v8 if your wondering.. i dont want a muscle car loudness, just a louder than stock roar.. anyone have an exhast clip that has a similar setup...

    If you do mufflers with no resonators it will be loud. At least it was for me in the three versions of exhaust I had on this piggy. Hoffy posted up some exhaust vids a few days ago. Go bug him, and see what he did. His sounds good.
