Hey all. Well, the 95 V6 needs a new exhaust. I'm thinking of going with a dual conversion via the Pacesetter H pipe adapter. I guess that brings me to my first question: Am I going to mess anything up by adding a second exhaust line to a computer that was programmed for one? It will still have the stock cats and manifolds.
Second, I obviously have to choose a cat back. I want something that's going to sound better than stock, but not be so outrageously loud that I become "that guy" rolling around and blowing everybody's ears out. It's okay if it's loud at WOT, but I want it to stay tolerable up to, say, 2,500 RPM. I usually shift before then when driving normally.
So here's what I'm considering right now, in order. Would love some opinions. For all of these, the question of "HOW LOUD" applies - I don't think you can get that too well from videos.
Magnaflow Competition - Seems to have a good sound and known for quality. From what I've heard on YouTube, the Street one sounds almost stock, so I wouldn't want to waste my money there. However, this seems to be the highest price of any of them, and I've seen some reports of bad drone.
Borla S-Type - Another one known for quality and cheaper than the Magnaflow. Not sure I like the tone, though. In videos it seems too deep, too perfect, like something out of a sci-fi film.
Mac Boom Tube - Pretty good sound, but I'm wary of the quality and fitment complaints. I'd prefer not to have to go to a shop to get it fitted.
Pypes Pype Bomb - Sounds nice, not sure about drone and quality.
SLP Loudmouth - Seems nice in videos but I've heard different on forums.
Thanks in advance to whoever wants to offer some advice.
