Drumnut: That is the sound I'm looking for. Just to be sure thats a glasspack replacing the resonator and then a 40-series flowmaster. All on stock pipes. Right.

i have 2 1/4 cat back borla with the 4 inch tip and it sounds nice, ask 99redse from the v-6 section, he can verify that it doesn't sound like a rice grinder at all.

The 40-series Flowmaster in combo with a straight pipe sounds great, but the drone on the interstate gave me incredible headaches. The glasspack cut the drone, but didn't affect the sound too much.
