Ok first off I spent quite a bit of time reading, and I just find myself wanting to buy headers and other things, maybe its ADD or something, but anyhow...
I've kinda been down this road before so I want to make sure I dont screw this up again. The old svt had a custom 3" exhaust, SHM long tube headers, and magnaflow mufflers, no resonator, and was just ridiculously loud. I had purchased a magnaflow resonator for it but ended up selling it before it was installed. At the time I liked the huge 4" tips off the end of the magnaflows, now I think that looks kinda ricey.
The "new" car has stock SVT exhaust including resonator. I want a deeper sound, nice looking rolled tips, and a bit of power gain. I dont want to spend $800+. I think I would start with one of the trubendz exhausts, not sure yet on 2.5" or 3", 2.5" seems a bit wussy to me but I guess thats what most people are doing. I'll take it to an exhaust shop and hope for minimal fitment issues.
As for mufflers/tips: I listened to quite a few clips and liked the magnaflow sound and price, but I dont like the look of my old ones and im worried it would be too loud. Id prefer a 3.5" max rolled edge tip, kinda like the borla
So maybe the 2.5" trubendz, magnaflow resonator, some magnaflow mufflers and something worked up for the tips...thoughts?
