I am wondering if you guys have any idea how itll sound. Like that raspy Honda crap? or will it be low? does the acutal engine have anything to do with the sound, or is allt he muffler?

most apex mufflers do have that bumble sound but since you have a v6, the sound will be lower.

It won't sound like "bees in a can"....

rather a deeper "buzz" sound, like "hornets in a mason jar" I think engine displacement makes the difference in sounds, but my friend's 2-liter Mitsu GST sounds exactly if not deeper than my car, but maybe the turbo makes it a little deeper sounding, who knows....

Let's do that, and hell, if I rattle like a tin can, maybe I'll attract some races ;p
