Then these will not quiet your car down then. Are you running the stock suit case muffler? Or do you already have an aftermarket exhaust? A quality cat back system from Borla will be a great system?

Anything made from 304SS is going to be the most expensive. Everything else sucks!
I won't buy any exhaust parts unless it's 304SS.

They are pretty loud and they drone, especially with a secondary cat delete. If you have your cats and can deal with some drone they sound great. I prefer a lower, rumbly tone in my exhaust though so the only other exhaust I like is the Flowmaster Outlaw NPP. If I had to do it over I would probably go that route.

Flowmaster Outlaw...the best sounding exhaust for the SS 376. The only reason I won't get it is because they don't have an NPP ver.

Isn't the American thunder using an outlaw muffler when it's in track mode and the super 44 for 'stealth' mode? Sounds like it's the option for you.

I am both cat delete with cut outs and Borla X-pipe and mid pipes then I have the MBRP black race version axle back and I'm tuned it sounds like a race car with that being said I just want to quiet it down just a bit when going from low gears up when running in 5th and 6th it's not bad at all !
