well at least I'm not alone. There are just alot of Hondas, Neons, Cavaliers, etc. running around that sound just like how mine does right now....I don't want to be classified as a slow car with a muffler-mod.

My exhaust is so loud that I can barely hear my supercharger over it.

I'm gonna try that resonator, see what happens I guess.

OK drove mine around the block for the first time and it is pretty loud
but not objectionable but it is a little shrill tone wise.Overall a great system

OK...it sounds like a two liter four cylinder internal combustion engine.
I can live with this.Back in the seventies I had a 2.3 litre Chev Vega with a Cherry Bomb
glass pack.......and an automatic.Rice wasn't invented yet back then,but it sounded like
a Cessna with a drunk pilot.

With my magnaflow setup it still allows the supercharger to be herd. In fact I think the super charger may be louder than the exhaust. It is nice and deep.

You have Vibrant???? I pity you. That's what my boyfriend has and it's obnoxiously loud. He also has no cat, which doesn't help sound-wise.

My only feear of my new SS/SC is it seems that if I want to make power, I have to be loud. My solution may be: Header, DP with a cutout. That way at the track I can have good flow but still have a quieter car for everyday driving.

I just have the GMPP cat back set up and I am very happy with it. I was thinking about getting the ZZP combo set up, but cash just isnt right at this point in time... I'm hoping with that added into the mix it will get a deeper... I have a video of mine on the dyno in my link, if anyone wants to hear it. GMPP Performance with an injen intake and stage 2

I was super close to ordering the zzp header/dp combo until i ran across this thread. I really want to order the combo but i dont want my car to be loud. I am surprised at how much louder the car gets. I knew it would get louder but i thought it would be a lil deeper sound. Guess not

I'm starting to think that maybe a downpipe and shorty header, or honed manifold would be best for sound... whichever way I go, I'll be sure and get before and after video to show everyone, so everyone can see what the setup does to your tone/volume of the exhaust

I love the way mine sounds, I have the sport gmpp exhaust it's loud but not rice, It sounds almost like a european car such as the bmw 3 series. I plan to put the homed manifold in but that's it.

Mine sounds about the same as the Megan Racing sound clip that is posted with the vendor.Starting to sound better to me.Like a hot-rodded TR-6 or MGB

I know the muffler I have has fiberglass in it, and from what I've been told those ones need to break in, and it takes about 2 weeks to a month. I hope it helps.
