Hey I just bought a 2001 GT auto last night. It has BBK O/R X and American Thunder exhaust. I want to tone it down a little bit so I don't get too much unwanted attention - would I be better off going to a catted mid pipe or trading out the 40 series mufflers? I don't mind the Flowmaster sound but the drone on the highway sucks with this setup. There is no emissions testing in my state. Thanks in advance!
Too Loud!! Change Out O/r X Or Mufflers?

Drive it faster......you will get away from the noise quicker......lol
The soundproofing should do a lot for it.

I have 40 series flowmasters and stock catted H pipe, all stock aside from flowmasters, and it sounds good BUT it's NOT loud enough! When I put in 410's it will wake it up a bit! By getting through the rpm's quicker. But I hope that long tube headers and off road x pipe makes it almost twice as loud?
Also switch to an off-road H pipe instead of x will make it quiter and deeper, and get rid of that "tinny" sound

I noticed my exhaust tips don't clear the bumper so I'm thinking I get a lot of sound inside the car from that. I'm getting new tips put on today so we will see if that helps. I watched a video where they had the same exhaust setup and it was quieter inside the car. If this doesn't help I will probably look into soundproofing.
