ok ik ive brought this up again and again but i cannot fond the sound i want from mufflers so when i get my license im going to get stright pipes. im going to remove the resonator and put a generic 24 inch glassoack in its place and remove the u bend? will it have enought back pressure?

No... Just no.


Try Summit race mufflers. There is next to nothing to them so they may give you the sound your want. Or better the question ask is do want SOUND or NOISE? NOISE is what you will get with a straight pipe set-up. SOUND will accomplished with mufflers.

you will NOT get the v8 sound from our v6 idk personaly you dont get that good of sound with streight pipes, i found some diff muffs i would like to buy i can sell u my old FM if you would like

I made the mistake of trying almost that exact same setup. My cat had clogged so I switched to a hi-flow cat, deleted the Ubend and put a glasspack in place of the res and added resonator tips out back. The car sounded great while it was sitting there idling but anything above that and it was buzzing and rattling the whole car...anything over 2k rpm or "getting on it" was enough to rattle the neighbors window glass and wake the dead...needless to say this system stayed on the car for all of 3 days.

I'll have to echo what 4drgt says...there is absolutely NO way you will ever get that low rumble from this engine. Your car and your money but I can tell you this...I went thru 3 whole different exhaust systems before I finally found a setup that gives a nice tone and doesnt make my teeth fillings come out.

NONONONO! You will never get a V8 sound from the V6. If anyone on here knows about exhaust, its Thunderbat, listen and learn...

FM or MF or summit muffs are about your BEST bet thats why everyone uses them because they are about the only thing that sounds good

No mufflers will sound "good". the quieter the better.

Question has anyone one here actually have magnaflow muffs in there setup right now. I haven't heard anyone talking about it.

boosten did have MF

After spending a week with a base model G6 and it being so quiet I'm really thinking about dropping my Flows for something quiet.

Guess I'm gettin old.

I lost quite a bit of volume with the new engine.

what will give you more actual volume out of your exhaust? my car has a good tone but its just seems like its to quiet. And i know i have a leak in my d/p flex section. Will a new 3" d/p increase the volume of my exhaust?

Yes I am running MF's on my GP right now and I like the sound I run a 3" DP To a cutout 3" to a Y (no cat or res.) from the Y is 2 1/2" to the Muffs ,This setup is the best I've heard on my car I had stock then stock pipes and res and cherry bomb turbos (this setup actually sounded pretty good) then I ran custom piping 3" to 2 1/2" no cat or res. and FM's sounded loud and raspy I then added a cherry bomb glasspack for a re. this was a little better ,then I switched the FM's for MF's it was pretty quiet so I removed the glasspackand that's where I am now I may try the stock muffs off my GTO and seewhat they sound like.Chico(pops)

Does that mean that if you have stock and its quieter that its the best? I've been thinkin about new muffs but i think stock sounds pretty good..

I would suggest the Magniflow with a res. almost as quiet as stock(slight rumble) but the weight of the MF's is about 1/2 that of stock.
