exhaust tone

hi everyone, i have a question regarding the tone (or maybe the "sound") of the 4th generation exhaust.
i guess many of you have driven the civic si or maybe the new sentra se-r spec v. when you rev-up the engine, you must have noticed this sound coming out from the engine. i don't know how to describe that sound, but personally, i think it's a very "strong sound," and i like it a lot. i don't think it's the muffler that is making the sound because you'll hear them from stock si and spec v. now, as you already known, the spec v is using the same engine as the 2.5 altima, but you do not find that "strong sound" in an altima. so i supposed maybe it's the down-piping that is doing the "sound" trick. NOW QUESTION, how can i modify my maxima so that it can "sound strong?"

I got Greddy SP catback exhaust on my 97 I30. It sounds tight as hell. I keep reving it, because its a very deep strong tone. I can try to record the sound of it(if i can figure out how to record it). And post it 4 yall 2 hear!
