Ok, so I posted about my exhaust note problem before. But I came up with some new ideas and also took some video so you guys can here what it sounds like. But if you didnt read my last thread, this is what I had said (my problem):
I just switched exhaust setups this weekend on my 2002 GT. Before I was running MAC LT Headers, O/R Prochamber, and Magnapacks. The sound was nice and deep, but the poor quality headers were giving me trouble, and I decided to swap them out. I am now running BBK LT Headers, BBK O/R H Pipe, and the Magnapacks. The problem is, I think the Magnapacks are too aggressive for the free flowing setup I have now. It sounds nice and deep at lower RPM's, but when I lay on it, the exhaust kind of farts (like a high pitched rasp). It sounds like I am shooting flames out from behind my car. It doesn't sound horrible, but I am more for the deep throaty sound throughout the RPM range, still being loud, haha. I figured its because of the new O/R H coupled with the straight through design of the Packs. When I had the Prochamber, it mellowed out the exhaust tone before it hit the catback and kept it deep. Now with the O/R H, its just shooting right through. So I think Im going to switch up to a chambered catback, to mellow the new sound.
Ok, now I'm stuck between another option. I was originally going to go with the regular chambered Magnaflow catback, but I heard from a few people that have my same setup. The thing is they have an O/R X instead of an H. I heard the setup sounds good, and is deep and doesnt fart like mine currently does. I heard this from two guys running LT's with an O/R X and Packs. I also heard its loud and can be heard from a far, which is nice, haha.
So I dont know what would sound better, and was hoping some of you could chime in, as maybe some of you have this setup or have heard a similar combination. Basically Im stuck between changing my O/R H to an X, or changing out the Magnapacks for a chambered Magnaflow setup. I still want it to be loud, but I do not want any farting, I want a nice deep tone throughout the RPM's. What do you guys think??
Thanks!
Ok, heres the video I made. I uploaded it to StreetFire.net as well as Putfile. So hopefully everyone can get it to work, through one of these links.
