I want a muscle car sound like a V8?

Mine sounds like a rustang GT. It sounds like a V8 until about 3500 rpm. PR CAI, Stillen Y, RT cat, 3" custom DUAL cat-back. Do what I did and you will be pleased.

the first thing i changed on my exhaust was the stock muffler. i had the stillen ss muffler with just a stock exhaust(just for the look really). it did give the car a nice deep tone, nothing like it sounds now with the rest of the pipes done. while driving it gave a deep humm.. v8'ish sound, but not loud..

I've driven a TL Type-S before, and as most of you know, it's a V6. The Type-S has mufflers that have 30% higher flow than the base TL, and from outside, even at low speeds, sounds a lot like any other car.
But from inside the engine has a nice burble, a lot like a V8 from inside. It didn't ahve the low-end torque of one, but it sounded a LOT like a V8.

MANNN, my friend just got his Ford Lightning. That thing sounds like a ****ed off dragon when he revs it.

How about making your Max sound like a Ferrari V8?
Stock F355/360 Modena exhaust: $3500 from the dealer
Ferrari variable intake box: About the same
Ferrari valves: Who knows?
Ferrari valvetrain: Probably $5000
Ferrari F1 Gearbox: $8,000 (Before they install it...)
