Well, after taking off my "new" SVT exhaust and putting the stock SE one back on, I've decided to keep the SVt one. The problem is it is too loud. Right now I have the no cat Y pipe, svt exhaust with Thrush glasspack and stock muflers out back. If I put a muffler in place of the glasspack will this help or will I get the same sound as the glass pack?
@ summitracing.com I was looking at these:
WLK-17731, SUM-630222, SUM-630130, or WLK-17732
Any ideas?

If you're complaining about that being loud, good thing you didn't try the Bassani.

You will want to be looking at a 6" round resonator.
2.25" perforated core (NOT louvered) straight through design.
This will deaden the sound the most. The longer the more deadening.

I just put in a 4x18" magnaflow this weekend and it sounds great. (Waaaay better than the glasspack that was in there...) Refined sound thats a tad louder than stock but still beefy when you step on it. PM me if you want my 18" magnaflow, cause I thinking of going to a 22" for complete peace and quiet. (2 1/4 inch pipe)
