How does this muffler sound, and where did you get it? Was the muffler SS?

i have a 97 5sp with a hacked intake, budget y pipe, stock cat, and custom 2.5" resonated cat back with either a bullit or magnaflow muffler.. the shop that did it carries magnaflow and bullit, but wrote down bullit on the receipt. when i went to both of the web sites for the companies it looks more like a magnaflow.

anyway, ive gotten many compliments about the way the car sounds from outside (one person said it sounded like a V7, more than a v6 but not quite a v8) but have had complaints from inside. between say 2-3.5k rpm it really drones under partial throttle. on the up side i can barely hear it on the highway, dont know why. im thinking about changing out the muffler to something a little more quiet. i dont know if its because of how i drive or the muffler but people can hear me coming down the road long before they can see me, and driving in the morning with a hangover is miserable

if i can get a hold of a digital video camera ill take some videos inside and outside the car.

I just ordered a Borla Pro XS muffler (#40358) yesterday. $69 from Wicked Nicky's on Ebay...awesome price, except the tip is $59. The muffler is SS...I'm excited to get it on! I heard bhmax16's Borla/bpipe and it sounds great!!! Pretty deep and very aggressive.

No one has mentioned the Apexi N1

thats good, I have it and hate it.

I installed an HKS Hyper Exhaust rear section on a friends IS300 this weekend and it was a deep growl with no burbling like my exhaust, so after I get a high flow cat (i've got full exhaust with stock cat) i'm going with the greddy sp2.

The Cattman catback sounds very deep and is the best in my opinion. Can't wait until i get their y pipe.

Apexi WS 2 Catback..... quiet, yet speaks with authority when you get on it.

And the muffler looks great.

i know this is an old thread but... i just bought the Budget y and bpipe with res. i need a new muffler too and was wondering how an 80 series flowmaster muffler would do with that setup?

so the setup would be...
ss y pipe, origional cat ss b pipe and ss magnaflow resinator, with the 80 series muffler?
