Then definitely don't get a set up from them. Don't care what muffler option you choose, they all suck. Well obviously you're on a budget so getting a full, decient catback is out of the question. Just change out your muffler to something different. Like a Dynomax Super Turbo. Will give ya some sound but not ricer loud.

Perhaps our opinion's of loud are different. But when I can't hear my supercharger whine with a 2.6" pulley and hear nothing but drone down the highway. That's way too loud for me.

Any aftermarket exhaust sound like garbage on LSJs, rasp and buzz city

Well this is a Cobalt forum so obviously we are talking about them.

If done properly you can actually make an LSJ sound pretty good. But you get what you pay for.
