Question Louder exhaust for '16-'18 Camaro SS without crackle and pop

Hi Guys, Which exhaust sounds louder than the quad NPP exhaust but without the crackle & pops and without the droning?

A tune should eliminate crackle and pop on any exhaust, quiet or loud.

How much power train warranty do you have left on a 2016?

I guess that is more pronounced on the '19-'22 Camaro SS on the '16-'18 you would almost don't noticed it.

Most don't like the crackle and Pop. Crackle and Pop belongs with cereal not cars.

You read my mind, that 2016 is about to be 7 model years old next month. Either he purchased an extended warranty or the warranty is expired and OP is not aware.

Extended warranty. Had a very bad experience with my Corvette C7 with the same engine, don’t want to risk it.

Ah I see, yeah the 2014 LT1 was not a great year. I dont blame you at all for your skepticism.

Besides that I consider that the LT1 has enough power for me, so I don't need to tune it.

Question

Do you think that AWE (Non-resonated Touring edition) or the MBRP would be the right one? And if I'm looking just for sound improvement an axle back that cost less would be sufficient or a cat back is needed for this? https://youtu.be/fprf2c51CJs

The AWE Touring catback is going to sound great and has zero drone. I love mine. You’ll lose NPP unfortunately though if your car came with that. Axle back version is actually louder than the catback version (and the catback is not quiet lol).

AWE is the direction I would go.
