An exhaust system is nothing but pipes. Greddy does nothing super special to theirs to make you gain more power than someone who has the same diameter exhaust system and bends that was made at the shop down the street.

Look in other places. If you like the sound of it, you can replicate it by getting a good muffler and large resonator.

Understand that your whole exhaust system isn't dependant on the muffler. This is the basic reasons why an exhaust sounds the way it does:

1. The diameter of the exhaust system
2. The size of the resonator
3. Whether or not it has an resonator
4. How many bends there are
5. The type of muffler you have
6. Whether or not you have an catalytic converter
7. Whether you have any exhaust leaks

This is basically it.

So if you want a bigger diameter exhaust system, make sure you get an resonator that is as long as possible, stick with an oval type muffler cause they typically tone down the exhaust noise just cause of its design (example: Magnaflow), get an Magnaflow (or whatever companies) High Flow Catalytic Converter, keep the bends to a mimum, get only mendral or compression bends...no crush bends and make sure there aren't any leaks.

This is the key to have a nice deep and low toned exhaust system.
