    You don't want to hear an exhaust note, but rather just want to hear the charge whine? You want a large rear muffler I think to quieten the exhaust. Best you ring a few exhaust shops and tell them what to want to achieve. Sureflo make custom exhausts and can make you a very quiet exhaust. I had this done a few weeks ago, very happy with the result.

    I have the 2 1/2 Inch cat back with a twin rear resi. This system actually with the resi installed later

    Puts out a pretty good note and when you put your foot down you can def still hear the whine.
    If you wanna make the whine louder + hear it draw in a bugger load more air install a DYI..... If your budget is tight. Homemade air duct (with pics) Can't argue with the result. Have it installed myself
