i was wondering if anyone had any suggestions for a muffler for a 2.8 that has a deep, well rounded, exotic tone to it? with a tiny bit of deep slight rasp similar to a ferrari but not the blatty sound of the common ricer. just looking for a muffler, no way im spending $1000 on a catback.i have someone that does good custom exhausts for cheap

your not going to make a v6 sound like a v8/10.  A magnaflow sounds nice and will give you a deep mean growl

no kidding. i was reffering to the amount of rasp, not the tone. too much rasp will sound blatty, not enough will sound poofy like alot of stock exhaust systems hooked to powerless engines. im looking for just a little past stock, a bit more volume with a raspy edge to it.

im assuming your talking about the magnaflow performance satin stainless steel mufflers? and not the race mufflers? thats definitely an option, the price is right, ill have to check them out

im also looking at the edelbrock sound deflection mufflers, they look pretty cool and like they would take away most of the tin can noise

Search out "A4 exhaust" on YouTubeand you can get an idea of how they compare.
